At least Mark Carney can formulate a cognizant, and intelligently informed response, unlike PP the man-child and hapless sloganeer. I doubt the reformer even knows what woke actually means.
I 100% agree with your position. PP would have rattled off a bunch of tag lines…plus, when did treating everyone with dignity and respect regardless of their race, religion, sex, gender or orientation become so irritating for so many? That’s what the anti-woke agenda is really about, yes? Being able to discriminate based on their hate? I agree that trans-females should not compete in strength-based female sports because it’s unfair. Other than that, whatever floats your boat. It affects my life 0%!
She tried to assert dominance in the interview but she is totally out of her league. He is way too smart to even entertain her attempts to make him look bad. ‘Just to be clear’… these are the actual facts and her pandering to the PC smear slogans are not going to cut it with an educated person prepared for the job.
Yup. Carney took both barrels from the compromised pro-Brexit British media establishment back in 2016, desperate to deliver tax havens for their corporate masters. He didn't even flinch. In comparison, Rosie Barton is amateur hour.
These are good questions, and I would like to think that Carney would have thoughtful things to say about them.
The sooner CBC gets rid of Rosemary Barton the better. I enjoy watching "At Issue" on Thursday nights, but always wish she would just shut up and let the intelligent people talk: particularly Chantal Hebert and Andrew Coyne!! The format should be changed to a "Coffee Klatch" between well informed commentators.
These are all good and important questions but let’s make the priority here to elect carney and to defeat our own maple magat and enemy of truth and democracy.
Carney is not running on convoy-con behaviour, radical right dissolution of social services, is not unable to get security clearances, is not running on trumpian slogans, and does not have the vast majority of pro-51st state traitors in his political party. No-one is perfect, no-one has perfect policies.
But he is NOT pp la Rat, and he is not an imminent danger to democracy and stability. We are engaged with a quasi-fascist ex-ally, in a declared economic war.
Carney is one of the best economists we have, and our one and only alternative to the absurdity of allowing our country to be handed over to another corrupt billionaire controlled idiocracy (kleptocracy, oligarchy, autocracy, or clear fascism … your choice)
Recent history shows us what a ginormous difference there is between a Liberal majority and a Liberal minority. Sometimes it seems like everything good the federal government has ever done was under Liberal minorities (Pearson, Trudeau I, Trudeau II) being forced to act for the good of the people by the NDP.
I admire much about Carney, and I'm glad he's polling above Poilievre, but I REALLY, REALLY believe it's now time to ignore the polls for a month (ONLY check them once only for your riding right before you vote), and instead get out there in real life (rallies, door knocking) and FIGHT for YOUR values. I explain why here:
Me thinks I won’t bother to sign 5he petition to save CBC after all. With this type of interview who needs it or better yet get rid of her and hire someone else.
Carney is better for this job than PP who as the leader of the opposition does not even have his security clearance. PP has never passed anything as opposition leader…why should Canadians elect him as PM. Make that make sense!!
Rosie Barton sounds like she an expert like Pierre one trick pony. What happened to her? PM Carney held his cool. I d never give her an interview again
If Carney wants to win, he needs some ridings from western Canada. We’re pissed off out here with how the Liberal-NDP coalition crushed our energy sector and made the whole country vulnerable to orange man . Just a tid bit of advice
I want Canadian leadership style here in US. Facts, no “he did - We did”. The US has drifted so far into the point a finger, blame others and anger model we appear to be doomed and accomplish nothing

I agree John. Why is Rosemary Barton always so rude?
Does she really think that being rude and curt with a guest replaces responsible journalism?
So unCanadian!
Canada, and Canadians, are presently enduring an existential crisis. And a monstrous adversary looms menacingly over our southern border.
Whether we like it or not, we are all in this together.
Let's act like it-- including the CBC.
This is the CBC. Not on Canada's side.

She comes across as a condescending self important “b“
Rosie’s interview style has become too aggressive. I can’t even bring myself to watch her.
Rosie Barton is an incompetent dullard. End of story.
I find Rosie Barton very boring and self-centered with a huge ego. She is boring as a journalist.
She needs to go with Danielle smith and pipi

Crushed? By means of a $35B pipeline gift to big oil the rest of us were forced to pay?
If only electric passenger rail could be "crushed" with a similar investment.
Could we also "crush" heat pumps, solar, and wind turbines?
More crushing please!
You Alberta cry babies just never stop. Do you need a binky? You're embarassing.
Crushed when Alberta is at record-high production levels?
