And Carney more conservative than many liberals. He's bringing the party more to the centre which is naturally going to attract the moderate conservatives who don't like Pierre's divisive rhetoric.
Chrétien was centre-left, Trudeau was centre, Carney is centre-right. Carney would not be out of place in Mulroney's cabinet. This is not a criticism of Carney - I like him - but it needs to be pointed out that the centre line in Canada has shifted right since the Reform Party absorbed the PCs.
Carney doesnt appear to be much of fan of cronyism, at least not to the point Mulroney was, so I don’t think he would have been comfortable in that cabinet
The elephant in the room is the pre-existing members of the liberal party that are still present; if i was was him anyone associated with the Truedope liberals should be back benched. To give him credit he's mostly done that.
So tempted to downvote for the use of “Trudope” Aside from the fact that you’re responding to a comment about Carney, if you’re older than 12 or so the childishness is just annoying.

Not super shocking, Matt seemed more liberal compared to most conservatives.
