    The Unofficial Advisor PlaybookBefore running for office, Mark Carney spent years operating in a unique political gray zone: an “informal advisor” appointed to key federal roles without a government salary, a cabinet seat, or mandatory public ethics screens. Holding roles like chair of the Liberal Party’s economic growth task force while remaining chair of Brookfield Asset Management allowed him to influence macro economic policy while remaining exempt from asset disclosures, ethics screens, or

    Excerpt

    Editor’s note: This piece has been in research since mid-August, tracking the evidence that Mark Carney never intended to reach a deal with the United States. The August 21st collapse isn’t the reason this thesis exists; it’s the latest confirmation of a pattern already mapped before talks fell apart.You Get What You GiveThirteen days after being sworn in, Mark Carney delivered his first direct statement as prime minister on the trade relationship with Canada’s neighbor and closest trading partn
