You have to take into account that Mark Carney has never held public office.
He like any other bureaucrat lies all the time. He just hasnt learned how to lie yet.
He's old. and thinks he can get away with saying 2 different things to 2 different crowds.
its' 2025. We have the internet and people are watching every single rally, event, news conference, media scrum, podcast you name it.
So truth is they can with the people that aren't tuned in... the average person who only gets 5 minutes of political news every week on the radio or whatevs

Carney’s campaign has acknowledged the messaging muddle, with spokesperson Audrey Champoux telling the National Post they need to “tighten up the message,” insisting he’s not flip-flopping but rather intends consultation with provinces. Yet, the raw statements—emergency powers in English, provincial veto in French—don’t easily reconcile without mental gymnastics. It’s not just two-faced in a colloquial sense; it’s a strategic pivot that risks undermining trust. His Brookfield tenure, profiting from global fossil fuel assets while pushing net-zero, already fuels skepticism about his sincerity. This pipeline dance only amplifies that perception—saying what’s convenient, where it’s convenient. Whether it’s hypocrisy or political pragmatism depends on how much you buy his team’s spin.

Critics, including Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, have seized on this, branding Carney “sneaky” and accusing him of doublespeak—saying “build” in English and “not without Quebec” in French. Posts on X and commentators like Brian Lilley have echoed this, suggesting it’s a calculated play to appease both resource-rich provinces and Quebec’s eco-conscious electorate.

In contrast, in a French-language interview in Quebec with CBC on Feb 17, when asked if he’d “impose a pipeline on Quebec,” Carney responded, “I would never impose [a pipeline] on Quebec,” emphasizing provincial consent and stating, “The provinces, including Quebec, must agree with such projects.” This softer stance aligns with Quebec’s historical resistance to projects like Energy East, which faced environmental and political pushback before its cancellation in 2017.
The contradiction isn’t subtle: one audience hears a commitment to force through pipelines, the other a promise of veto power.

His statements on pipelines have indeed sparked accusations of inconsistency, reflecting a pattern of tailoring his messaging to different audiences.
In English, during a speech in Kelowna on Feb 19, Carney said, “Something that my government will do is use all of the powers of the federal government, including the emergency powers… to accelerate the major projects that we need,” explicitly mentioning the need to “build some new pipelines for conventional energy.” This was framed as a bold push for national energy infrastructure, resonating with Western Canada’s resource interests.

The real issues is that, most people don’t know the overlap and top down effects between what provincial and federal governments, making it all intertwined.
Every single provincial issue is downstream of federal decisions.
healthcare funding? - federals to provincial governments
Lack of housing? Federal government is bringing in 500,000 newcomers every year and has loaded our country with 10% of our population in temporary residents
Any additional healthcare money? no
Any additional doctors, nurses, hospitals?
Any additional housing? no
