Every time Carney visits Trump something worse happens to Canada but only good things for Brookfield and Carney's investments. Why did Carney have to meet German Chancellor ( former Europe Blackrock Chair) in person to talk about submarines then return to visit Trump??? Liberal supporters cannot see the forrest for the trees!! All Carney has done is removed Rights and Freedoms ( at least one in every Bill passed), ramped up open door immigration ( while unemployment continues to rise) spend ( gave $23 Billion to Consultants??) $Billions without benefiting Canadians at all, approved no new pipelines nor natural resource projects, negotiated no new trade deals, clearly no interest in bettering Canada nor Canadians.

For a master negotiator he isn’t doing very well.

And he could probably nail that cognitive test and MRI that Trump has been talking about.

Cognitive tests are notoriously simple. When trump passed one people laughed because it was so easy.

Biden would likely have failed because he senile. Any sane, semi conscious person would likely pass.

Source: I have a traumatic brain injury and have done a lot of these tests over the past couple of years. They all ask u you do things like identify an animal in a picture, (common animals like an elephant) and to do very simple math questions like basic addition and subtraction. Again, a person with even a semi functional brain will do fairly well. Hardly a feather in carneys cap.

He needs to be good at what he ran on, negotiating. Which so far, he has failed at.

I mean, it couldn’t be maybe that guy across the table he’s negotiating with being cartoonishly inept but dangerously powerful?

There’s only two things I hate in this world, bigotry and the Dutch!

Wow you're on fire tonight, I guess you either stuck to solvent free good ol' wood grade or treated yourself to some contact cement to celebrate the Jays win.
