Carney’s Magic Carpet

PM Carney has travelled abroad extensively — flying on Canada’s credit card — in his first year. Today he announced a new sovereign debt fund: “The Canada Thong Fund will give Brookfield a direct stake in building Canada strong,” he said.

PM Carney is depicted with a Brookfield Tramp Stamp above his Canada Strong Thong, while riding a flying Credit Card Carpet. This satirical cartoon highlights the PM’s current blind-trust Brookfield ties, while portraying the new initiative as a flashy but questionable financial scheme, amid efforts to distract Canadians from his lack of progress dealing with President Trump.
