BROWN: Carney's 'Values' the wrong ones at the wrong time

Carney pitches a vision of 'sustainable finance,' net-zero absolutism, and heavy-handed regulation that threatens Canada's future and the West.

For those who haven’t had the misfortune of parsing through Mark Carney’s ‘Values,’ it reads like a sermon from a high priest of globalism — polished, preachy, and packed with ideas that should send shivers down the spine of anyone who cares about Canada’s economy, especially Western energy producers.

Writing as the former Bank of Canada governor and a darling of the Liberal elite, Carney pitches a vision of 'sustainable finance,' net-zero absolutism, and heavy-handed regulation. To the National Citizens Coalition, it’s clear: this isn’t a roadmap to prosperity, it’s a wrecking ball aimed at the heart of Canada’s resource sector and the West’s economic lifeline.

Start with Carney’s obsession with "revaluing value." In ‘Values,’ he argues markets should prioritize climate goals over profit, pushing financial institutions to choke funding for oil and gas.

For Alberta and Saskatchewan, where energy employs tens of thousands and pumps billions into the economy, this is a death knell dressed up as virtue.

Western producers aren’t just businesses; they’re the backbone of communities, powering schools, hospitals, and homes. Carney’s disdain for fossil fuels ignores their role in keeping Canada competitive while our allies and adversaries keep drilling. His plan? Starve the sector, stranding assets and jobs, all to appease international green lobbyists in European nations with nationalized economies on the road to being as disastrous as Canada’s.

Then there’s his love affair with regulation. ‘Values’ champions policies just like Bill C-69 — the 'No More Pipelines Bill' — which Carney has refused to repeal. He sees it as a tool to enforce his net-zero utopia, but for the West, it’s a padlock on progress. Pipelines that could carry Canadian oil to global markets sit stalled, leaving producers at the mercy of low prices, foreign competitors, and now, tariff threats.

Carney’s mental framework both then and now doesn’t just stop projects, it signals to investors that Canada’s energy sector is a no-go zone. The result? Capital flees, jobs vanish, and the West pays the price for the lofty ideals of a London and Manhattan banker, who spends only part of his time in Canada — specifically, Ontario and Quebec.

Carney’s globalist bent only deepens that worry. ‘Values’ oozes adoration for wasteful supranational extortion rackets — think UN climate pacts, ESG mandates, and Carney’s sputtering GFANZ — while downplaying the national sovereignty he suddenly appears to care for, to satisfy the temporary anti-Trump whims of Liberal supporters.

For Canada, this means further ceding control of our economic destiny to unelected bureaucrats who don’t care about Fort McMurray. Western producers, already battered by a decade of Liberal neglect, face a future where their fate hinges on Carney’s borderless fantasies rather than Canadian priorities like energy security, affordability and ensuring our economy actually grows for the first time in ten years.

The hypocrisy stings, too. While preaching 'shared values' like it’s some cult mantra on practically every page, Carney’s firm, Brookfield, was recently caught funneling taxes through a sketchy Bermuda bike shop. It’s a stark reminder: his rules are for the little guy, not the connected elite.

For the National Citizens Coalition, ‘Values’ shows anything but. It’s a red flag, a defect of character. Carney’s agenda threatens to gut Canada’s economy, hollow out the West and drive separation sentiment to new heights, and leave us poorer and less free.

With the April 28 election looming, we’re sounding the alarm: reject the daily Carney lie. Know that when he speaks of 'clean energy' he means costly, ineffective renewables. And he’s not kidding about his continued support for Bill C-69, and no more pipelines.

Western energy needs champions, not challengers — especially now.

And to reclaim the Canadian Dream for millions, young Canadians need a growing, self-sustaining economy. Oil and gas jobs — rig workers, engineers, trades — offer high wages without requiring decades of government handouts, and when the sector does well, every Canadian benefits.

Carney’s pivot to a "green economy" bets on unproven sectors like wind or hydrogen, which lean heavily on handouts and lack the scale to replace resource wealth anytime soon. A 2022 Fraser Institute study pegged Canada’s fossil fuel sector as contributing $120 billion annually to GDP... good luck replicating that with subsidized solar startups run by friends of the Liberal family.

As a prime minister, Justin Trudeau had no values. It was a weakness of character, but a political strength. Unfortunately for working Canadians and Canada’s future, in the case of Mark Carney, he has a manifesto filled with values. They just so happen to be all the wrong ones, at exactly the wrong time.

To build families, homes, prosperity, and even Canada’s sovereignty, it’s never been more important to turn out in record numbers at the polls.

Not all threats are external. This one comes from within.
