Liberal Party members have chosen former central banker Mark Carney to be their new leader and the next prime minister of Canada.

Carney secured enough votes in the first round of voting to win the job, party president Sachit Mehra announced.

Doing the same job here he had no influence and doing the same job there he ruined everything?

Maybe the UK is worse off because of Brexit, an event which had really only one outcome: worse trade policies, and using less efficient industries to compete against more efficient competitors.

Carney was against Brexit because it was bad economic policy for the UK to follow. They voted for it anyway twice and Carney helped them through it despite him not agreeing with it. The UK is still suffering now and is even talking about re-joining the EU.
