Summary

Mark Carney is a YouTuber now. Over the weekend the Prime Minister released the first episode of his new YouTube series Forward Guidance. It’s a tightly scripted, “intimate” video designed to project calm authority while walking Canadians through an increasingly shaky relationship with the United States. It’s part history lesson, part recycled campaign slogans, and highly reminiscent of FDR’s fire side chats.  What’s the goal here? Carney frames Canada’s economic relationship with the U.S. as a growing liability and seems to be preparing Canadians for tough times ahead. But is he just shifting the blame? It’s crowd-finding time at Canadaland!
