  • As Liberal party leader, it’s Mark Carney, a former central banker and economic policy guru.

    As Prime Minister, it remains to be seen. In theory, Carney could take over from where Trudeau left off before Parliament was prorogued. In reality, the opposition parties have already promised to topple the government and trigger an early election.

    Our election cycle is much shorter than the USA’s, so even if there’s an election called tomorrow we’ll have a new government and PM by the summer.

    Low Tide by Deer Fang (St. Catherines, ON), released in 11 October 2024 in English.

    The first few months of 2025 have been way more fertile, so I have three more nominations in the posts to follow (would be four, but I’m assuming that something from Our Lady Peace’s newest album wouldn’t count).
