Somehow, Carney has not really understood that a total environmental disaster would be bad for things outside of the financial system, and that he was elected to take care of them.
While it's often the case that the Libs have benefitted by playing to the left on environment and public services, especially when forced by the NDP, it is also true that their actions have always favored Big Oil and Gas. The Liberal Party is a party that is wedded to a continentalist alliance with American capitalism, as the Waffle had pointed out. The big tent aspect has been more of an obscure alliance favoring the rich and powerful. The Libs have always favored the military alliances with American imperialism, even acting as a cover for the U.S., for example in lying and spying for the Americans in the Vietnam War days and military occupation of Afghanistan. The major difference between Carney and Poiliviere is the latter's unhinged support for the fascistic fringes who espouse conspiracy theories and who organize separatist actions for Alberta, not to mention attacking the rights of trans kids.
