    Yes, he’s a centrist and he’s to the right of Trudeau. These are fiscally conservative centrist policies. He’s at the right wing of the Liberal party. He’s not Trump, he’s not a Conservative, nobody says he is.

    But for the love of Tommy Douglas’ ghost, don’t try to sell me any of this as …left wing. Carney is no social-democrat or democratic socialist.

    If you think that pointing that out is somehow deriding Carney, that’s a “you” problem. There is nothing wrong with being a centrist, I don’t understand why you need to convince that the man is something he just isn’t.
