And he appointed a BlackRock exec for an ambassador among other interesting decisions. If you end up liking his track record by the next election, you could give him another vote. If you don't, there better be a decent alternative. But in any event, Carney having legitimate electoral competition from the left can only make him deliver better for us.

BTW, I did contribute to Carney's campaign and voted for him as he was the only medicine that could have prevented a PP government, but from what I've seen so far, I'm under no illusion that he's going to deliver substantially for me instead of the corporate elite. He's doing alright on some fronts and not so good on others. I see no motion to deliver for labour outside of helping corporations in the hope that lifts labour. Which is just good ol' trickle-down economics. My vote wasn't an excuse to not put my energy into helping the NDP become an electable, leftist alternative. We need that more than ever in recent history.
