And yet Carney doesn’t exist in a vacuum.
I would opine that the other party leaders are MORE susceptible to the criticisms you leveled at Carney.
PP has shown no ability or interest in forming coalitions or an ability to adapt to changing situations. He has no successes to his name in or out of parliament. What he HAS shown is an affinity for gotchas, sloganeering and playing political games with national security (does he even have clearance yet?)
I really don’t understand the difference…
Why is PP’s past “speculative and irrelevant” but Carney’s isn’t? If anything, we’ve seen PP be lackluster and ineffective in Parliament while any comments about Carney are speculative.
And during an election where we have limited options comparison is necessary and unavoidable
