Mark Carney Considers Bid to Succeed Justin Trudeau as Canadian Prime Minister

The former Bank of England and Bank of Canada governor is weighing a run for leadership of the Liberal Party following Trudeau's resignation.

Mark Carney, a former central banker and current chair of Brookfield Asset Management, has stated he is considering entering the race to lead Canada's Liberal Party.
Justin Trudeau announced his resignation after nine years as prime minister, citing internal and external challenges facing the Liberal Party.
Carney, who has never held elected office, brings extensive economic expertise, having served as governor of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England.
Other potential candidates for the Liberal leadership include former Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland and Transport Minister Anita Anand, both seen as strong contenders.
Polls suggest the Liberal Party faces significant challenges, with the opposition Conservative Party currently holding a substantial lead in voter support.
