## Resource

This week, Canadians headed to the polls for a federal election. In the lead-up, many anticipated a decisive victory for the Conservative Party of Canada, under the leadership of Pierre Poilievre. The Liberal Party, previously led by Justin Trudeau, had overseen significant economic challenges , stagnant GDP growth, an impressive list of ethics violations and a 90% increase in food bank usage since 2019 , leaving Canadians eager, even desperate, for change. Rather than call an election, Justin Trudeau stepped down as party leader and Mark Carney, the former governor of the Bank of England, UK and Irish passport holder and long-time UK resident, was appointed interim Prime Minister just weeks before calling an election. Despite Carney’s checkered fiscal record at the Bank of England , limited time spent in Canada, and ties to the outgoing Trudeau administration as their economic advisor, Carney secured a victory that caught the international community off guard. This unexpected outcome has sparked a series of events that will very likely see the break-up of the country currently known as Canada. To make sense of this political earthquake, we spoke with Albertan Dave Bradley to understand how we arrived at this juncture and what the future may hold. About Dave Dave is the host of the Bitcoin Rodeo conference in Calgary, AB as well as a founder and advisor to several bitcoin companies. He is also allegedly the strongest and best looking entrepreneur in Canada.
