Carney's first year as PM: Political rise and governing risks

In this episode of Hub Politics, Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and chair of Abacus Data, join Sean Speer to discuss Prime Minister Mark Carney's first year in office. They examine his remarkable political rise, his alignment with Canada's uncertain geopolitical moment, and his success in distancing himself from the Trudeau era. They then explore Carney's leadership style, his centralized governing approach, and the risks of perceived hubris. In the second half, they examine recent floor-crossings, upcoming byelections, and whether a Liberal majority would fundamentally advance the government's ambitious but execution-challenged agenda.
