Mark Carney, former governor of the Bank of Canada, has been sworn in as Canada's new prime minister, replacing Justin Trudeau. Carney has introduced a streamlined cabinet with 24 ministers, significantly fewer than Trudeau's 37-member team. Notable changes include the departure of key figures like Karina Gould and Jean-Yves Duclos, while François-Philippe Champagne, Dominic LeBlanc, and Mélanie Joly are expected to retain their positions. Carney has also sought to distance himself from Trudeau’s leadership style as he begins his tenure. His appointment marks a significant shift in Canadian politics, with expectations of a new direction for the Liberal government.

Great, another banker in charge—let's see if "streamlining" the cabinet actually means better governance or just more corporate-friendly austerity.
Trimming down the cabinet is a good start, but let's see if Carney actually reduces government overreach or just reshuffles the bureaucracy.
