Canada has a new Prime Minister: Mark Carney.

He is:
The first PM born in the NWT.
The third PM after Joe Clark and Kim Campbell born west of Ontario.
The first PM born in the 1960s.
The 2nd PM to have played for the Oxford University Ice Hockey Team (after Lester B. Pearson).

In conversations across VanGran, one thing is clear:

Canadians are looking for leadership that is clear-eyed & capable, focused on building our prosperity & protecting our sovereignty.

That’s why I’m proud to support Mark Carney as our next PM & Liberal leader.
