Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre and other Conservatives called for additional scrutiny of Mark Carney following his appointment as an economic advisor to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after Brookfield Asset Management, the firm which he chairs, pitched a proposal for a multi-billion-dollar investment fund.
The $50-billion asset fund would be seeded by as much as $10 billion in federal dollars, with the rest coming from Canada’s large pension funds.
“Isn’t he a walking, talking conflict of interest,” Poilievre said, adding that the economic task force Carney heads up only has one member.
“On that side of the house, they get their foreign policy advice from Elon Musk and from Tucker Carlson,” Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland pushed back.
Michelle Rempel, Conservative MP for Calgary Nosehill, pushed further, asking if the Liberal government or Brookfield had cleared any of the firms activities with the lobbying commissioner.

The liberals really are a bunch of brainless children. The Conservatives are being mean to us! They get angry when we can’t rip people off, we feel like they are talking down to us! ……well….yeah thats what the opposition is supposed to do. Sorry they are so good at it?
Unfortunately, I have to stop the videos of Freeland talking every time. Her voice is like a condescending kindergarten teacher, talking down to Canadians. How did an unqualified literature grad become our finance minister? Oh wait! This is the liberal party of a part time drama teacher!!
Global Tv how about reporting on the lastest shutdown of parliament? You too woke?
When a new gov comes all these thieves should be investigated and held accountable .dont say it cant happen it does in other countries overseas why not here
Is it just me, or do other canadians wonder why global, ctv, cbc, star NEVER have EXPERTS to Discuss the huge liabilities and potential for ruin of what are OBVIOUS LY insanely bad liberal policies.
There is no way that the already bad preforming pension plan should be granting access to its investments to ANY GOVERNMENT PARTY
let alone a party full of corruption and one that has destroyed the economy for at least a generation!!!
So where are the " experts" so readily available to these legacy media clowns to pointbout pitfalls when its an oppostion idea?
Enquiring minds want to know???
Carney do not touch pension money
If this bank robber gets our pention . Forget the police .
The Liberals love conflict of interest because it makes them rich.
Freakland just needs to shut her mouth, she knows nothing! Carney's a crook !
Roman empire : Lets give the people circus and bread to keep them happy ;
Canadian liberal gouv. : Lets dress as clowns and go sell cookies to the people, our rich donnors want their investment back.
The liberals will spend ur pensions
I won’t give blood because they sell it for money this government needs to go to jail
Freeland needs SPEECH LESSONS..CAN'T STAND HER WHINING
Mark Carney is nothing but a cling on, looking for Trudeau's job without the election process in which he would surely be defeated anyway. Carney is a WEF soldier. You think Trudeau did a number…you aint seen nothin yet.
polievre ain't no no poet but he don't know it
Funny , when the Conservatives piss away money on consultants they say it’s an investment.
When the Liberals do it it’s corruption.
It’s all a matter of perspective I guess
As long as MPs mic’s aren’t turned off
Pension amoney for telestat,tmx, indigenous loans against the advice of the independent planners. Lower returns for the plan. Freeland shell game.
Some one PLEASE SHUT THIS THING UP. I dont think they need help ripping off Canadian tax payers from carney Canadians know they have done pretty good for them selves already
Prime designer of the wealth gap! It is all about control! We don’t want CBD! No digital ID!

This Walmart Trump thinks his nicknames are clever. Maybe he never got over being called Skippy
Canadian economy is ranked to the 4th poorest state in the USA – Alabama . Do you really want your pension plans managed by Brookfield . The taxpayers of Canada didn’t vote for this. I’m sure the government will use it for their own purposes and not taxpayers interest . It’s like liberals dont understand economics and a lot do but they are seriously corrupt politicians
The Liberals are milking the country for everything while it lasts.
