Carney’s ‘Major Projects’ Plan: Real Progress or Political Illusion?
Manage episode 508428302 series 3692005
Mark Carney just unveiled five major "nation-building" projects and a new Major Projects Office — but is this real action or just polished political theatre? As Canada's deficit deepens and public trust erodes, many are asking: what’s actually being built?
In this week’s episode, host Mike Wixson and political commentator Paul Micucci break down the cracks in Carney’s plan. From overlapping projects to an office that might not even be staffed, they dissect whether this is genuine infrastructure progress or just red tape in disguise. With Pierre Poilievre calling it a “bureaucratic smokescreen,” the conversation explores what’s really at stake for Canada's economy and energy sector.
Key topics in this episode:
• What Carney’s “five major projects” actually are
• The role and credibility of the new Major Projects Office
• Pierre Poilievre’s sharp critique and what it signals
• The overlap with existing infrastructure plans (e.g. LNG Canada)
• How political timing and budget concerns undermine credibility
