Disappointing letter
April 1, 2025
I was quite disappointed and very unimpressed with a letter which Rob Hill wrote in the March 25 edition of this paper. I have one question for you, Mr. Hill. Which job are you saying that Mark Carney is applying for? All of his experience, which is impressive, is perfect if he was applying to be the finance minister.
If he wants to continue being the prime minister of Canada, he better show that he can lead our country through these difficult times for the next four years. Mr. Hill, you wrote, “He could literally get any job he wanted in financial circles anywhere in the world,” a quote by Don Drummond, a former TD Bank chief economist who also said, “Carney is a giant on the international front.”
My second question is how can the role of prime minister and the role of financial advisor be the same? May I remind you that Carney has no experience as a political person. Will you hire the bookkeeper of a company as the CEO of a company? The Liberals might have been fooled into voting this man with only 150,000 of the 400,000 possible voters within the Liberal membership. Does this bother you that something is going on behind the scenes? Your reasoning for why Carney is the perfect selection in my view is out to lunch along with the rest of the Liberal party who placed this man at the helm of their sinking ship.
