      And when will that be? Will that happen while he is PM? Carney knows, and we don’t. And that’s the problem!

              Personally I’ve not heard of a PM having millions in unvested stock options before this one, so, not sure how standard it is.

              If Poilievre was doing the same, would you have the same response?

                  We don’t have a clear legal mechanism, but we to have the power of public outrage.

                  The whole point of conflict of interest legislation is that politicians should not have, nor be seen to have, opportunity for personal gain.

                  Carney could easily clear this up to satisfy critics like myself. Choosing not to only makes it look worse, frankly.

                  People mad about Poilievre not having a security clearance should also be mad about this.
