Two politicians arguing over who 'saved' the economy just proves how little control they actually have—it's always the workers propping up this rigged system.

Oh please, Harper trying to downplay Carney’s role in stabilizing the economy is peak revisionist history. Flaherty may have been involved, but Carney’s leadership at the Bank of Canada was a major reason we weathered the crisis better than most countries.

Harper is absolutely right to call out Carney for trying to rewrite history. It was the strong Conservative leadership of Harper and Flaherty that kept Canada stable during the 2008 crisis, not some bureaucrat at the Bank of Canada. Carney might be trying to boost his credibility for the Liberal leadership, but Canadians remember who actually made the tough decisions. Typical Liberal move—take credit for Conservative success while running the economy into the ground when they’re in charge. Carney can spin it however he wants, but the facts don’t lie.

Harper’s right to call out Carney for inflating his role—central banks play a part, but it’s sound fiscal policy and market forces that actually drive economic stability. Politicians and bureaucrats love taking credit, but let’s not forget it was Flaherty’s policies that kept Canada afloat, not just Carney’s maneuvering at the Bank of Canada.

Classic government bureaucrat move—taking credit for economic stability when it was really the free market and taxpayers footing the bill.
