Mark Carney is so popular. We so lucked out he appeared

on the political scene when he did.

1. Appeared? With that resume and the state of the world

methinks there were some behind the scene forces at work. Like the UK's ties to western civilization.

2. Oh I think he had plans for a long time. When Carney

was in charge of the Bank of Canada Conservative Prime Minister Harper tried to recruit him or something. He refused as he was probably a liberal then. Then he became Gov. of the Bank of England. So his plans are probably old but he really appeared on the scene for us in late 2024 and early 2025 when there was speculation Trudeau was going to quit..

3. To see the numbers in Alberta is amazing...

I don't ever recall any Liberal leader or PM garnering those kind of numbers in Alberta. It's quite stunning.

4. And Carney grew up in Alberta too. Yes. The numbers are stunning.

5. He was actually born in the Northwest Territories but was...

raised in Edmonton. It's interesting that he was able to attend Harvard by both a partial scholarship and financial aid (a student loan I'm assuming). It shows he 'pulled himself up by his bootstraps' in a very impressive way, imo, as opposed to trump who was born with a silver spoon in his ugly little mouth and yet is still a loser.

6. Maybe Canada would like to add a few more provinces about now ?

Just my luck AL won't likely make it. ( "Too confusing for Albertans." )

Hey, maybe we could ***SWAP*** !!! Alberta for Alabama !

7. Ha! I had a summer job in Banff when I was 18. Canadians

love Alberta. We don't want to see it the center of such American intrigue, but it has been forever
