The speeches tonight by Chrétien and Carney were quite powerful and succinct. There were a lot of gems in there that will likely go viral on US and Canada news networks. But what struck me the most from the speeches was the strong sense of certainty that Carney is the right person to take Canada into the next decade.

What did they talk about that gave you this certainty?

"Les canadiens et les canadiens sont inquiets du cul de la vie!" --Mark Carney. The next few years will be delightful.

Okay, my schoolboy French is tres terrible, but am I translating this correctly? "The Canadians and the Canadians are worried about the ass of life"?

Note that he’s only Prime Minister temporarily. He’s replacing Trudeau and will call elections soon (must be before October) and will go up against Poilievre. EDIT: Didn’t mean to suggest he won’t win the election. But he’ll have to defend the seat.

Potentially temporarily - the tariffs and 51st state rhetoric has really shifted the polling there from an easy conservative win to a liberal resurgence
