Liberal caucus chair defends Carney amid reports of yelling at MPs

Liberal Caucus Chair James Maloney is vehemently denying the prime minister has a caucus management problem, pushing back on reporting from this week citing unnamed Liberal MPs accusing Mark Carney of being dismissive of the concerns they were raising, and yelling. Several MPs told the Toronto Star this week that Carney has a penchant for lashing out at caucus members, centralizing power, and ignoring their concerns.

PM Carney announces Canada Strong Fund - a sovereign wealth fund.

The fund will focus on building infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, energy and mining with a mandate to deliver market-rate returns.

It will operate at arms-length from government as a new Crown Corporation, guided by a CEO and a qualified independent board of directors and it will provide mechanisms for Canadian citizens to directly participate. It may also put in investments form others, with Qatar, India, and the United Arab Emirates already indicating a willingness to invest in Canada. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/27/world/canada/canada-sovereign-wealth-fund.html #Canada #Investment #SoverignWealthFund #CanadaStrong #Carney #Infrastructure #CanGov #GovernmentofCanada #Investing

I'm very familiar with the red-tape and hoop-jumping that is necessary to produce an official logo within #Cangov departments. I agree the strange and unexplained "Lego moose design" choice is truly odd, but it guaranteed had to go through numerous levels for approval.

It does irk me that the response to criticism is saying, "It was developed by DND's internal graphic design team, and this icon comes at zero expense to the taxpayer." It speaks volumes that a public servant's work is "free". πŸ™„
