Conservatives accuse Mark Carney of hiding financial interests, demand transparency

Conservative ethics critic Michael Barrett accused Mark Carney of failing to disclose key financial interests tied to Brookfield Asset Management, alleging a conflict of interest. “Mark Carney has failed to come clean with Canadians about his financial interests and his conflicts of interest,” Barrett said, questioning Carney’s use of a blind trust. He argued that Carney stands to benefit from investment funds he helped set up, citing a Brookfield executive who stated, “If we meet fund expectations, we get 20% of the profits.” Conservatives are calling on Carney to fully disclose his assets or divest to avoid conflicts.
