Bill takes on Preston Manning’s recent op-ed, “Carney, Trump and Rocket Richard: Best defence is a good offence,” critiquing the former Reform Party leader’s partisan take on Prime Minister Mark Carney. Bill highlights Carney’s record during global economic crises, his cooperative approach with Canada’s provincial premiers, and the high-stakes diplomacy required when dealing with Donald Trump’s administration. With Canada facing complex economic and political challenges, Bill makes the case for a united “Team Canada” strategy over partisan attacks.
