The True Post (Web News)Former Bank of England governor and potential political contender Mark Carney visited Ontario Premier Doug Ford at his Muskoka cottage, raising eyebrows in political and economic circles.
The meeting, confirmed by Ford’s office, was described as informal, focusing on economic matters and the broader direction of Canada’s fiscal future. Though no official political announcements were made, Carney’s presence at the Ford family cottage has sparked speculation about his potential return to Canadian politics.
Carney, who has held top financial roles globally, including with the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, has long been viewed as a possible leadership candidate for the federal Liberals. His recent increased public appearances and commentary on Canadian economic policies have further fueled such talk.
Ford’s spokesperson clarified that the Premier regularly meets with influential figures to discuss issues impacting Ontario’s economy, and this meeting was one of many such engagements.
Observers suggest the meeting could have implications for both provincial and federal political alignments, especially as Canada approaches the next election cycle.
