Excerpt:
Former Bank of England governor Mark Carney has said Canada will “never ever” be part of America after winning the race to succeed Justin Trudeau as the country’s prime minister.
Mr Carney – who headed up Britain’s central bank between 2013 and 2020 – will replace the 59-year-old after winning the Liberal Party leadership race.
Mr Trudeau, who has served as prime minister since 2015, announced he was stepping down in January after facing calls to quit from his own MPs.
Mr Carney, 59, is currently chairman of Canadian alternative investment firm Brookfield Asset Management. He will now have to decide when to call a general election in Canada – which must take place on or before October 20.
