      Goodness, Axworthy is crashing out hard. 

      Maybe before he goes off about the alleged values the Liberal party used to hold, he should look at the behaviour of the governments he was quite happily a part of.

      Carney’s Liberals are governing VERY much like the Chrétien government in which Mr. Axworthy was proud to serve, but without the benefit of the rules-based order that was bedrock to everything Lloyd touched in that role.

      …but I guess admitting that wouldn’t get Lloyd bookings for op-eds and talking-head appearances.

      Hope more centre left Liberals will speak up about this and maybe even consider joining the NDP. It’s clear that Carney has been getting a steady stream of Conservative defections because he’s a better Con PM than PP could hope to be. At the same time, I’d be surprised if that doesn’t rub a few of the more progressive Liberals the wrong way. Hope to see more of these criticisms now that the ice has been broken.

      As long as Carney stays relatively faithful to Trudeau’s left-wing ideals and identity politics (childcare, sufficient attention paid to LGBTQ issues, indigenous reconciliation), I don’t think most far-left Liberals are going to care about how he deals with the rest, as long as it’s preserving them from a Poilievre-led government.

      Axworthy did Canada proud in the time and circumstances he was governing in. And there’s nothing wrong g with having dissenting voices now.
      That said, I think Carney’s Liberals are governing as small „c“ conservatives because that’s what Canadians voted for. The Trudeau Liberals had lost count of employees, trees planted, students, TFWs, dollars… and we need a correction.
