In reply to the discussion: Mark Carney Just Walked Into Armenia and Cracked The American Empire In Half [View all]GopherGal
(2,942 posts)70. I just looked him up on Wikipedia
Because I thought I remembered that he was a goalie, and goalies = weird (not always in a bad way, ymmv).
He was Harvard's backup goalie.
During his Harvard years, he was backup goalie for the varsity ice hockey team[18] and was a roommate of future NHL general manager Peter Chiarelli and former ice hockey player Mark Benning.[19][20] He lived at Winthrop House, and graduated in 1987 with a bachelor's degree in economics magna cum laude.
Oh, yeah, and graduated magna cum laude.
The contrast to that orange sac of festering pus at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave just keeps looking more painful.

If Carney gets Canada admitted to the EU, and then allies them with the TPP...

I don't see us joining the EU, we would lose too much autonomy, partner with them yes.

He may just be saving a lot more than just Canada. He sure knows how to negotiate and stand up to bullies. .

Mark Carney is a real leader working on behalf of his country, not his own ego and his own bottom line.
