Approval Reasons

Here are some reasons why Canada voters gave their rating.

 @B8DK33Sfrom Saskatchewan  agreed…8mos8MO

Below average

Carney held the budget bill too close to the chest, and the chaos that ensued is resulting in not nearly enough pushback on the bill.

 @B8PG79Yfrom Ontario  agreed…7mos7MO

Below average

I would give this average because he did say he would make lots modifications.

 @B6V7GP9from Alberta  agreed…10mos10MO

Below average

I think all political leaders aren’t open to the public and the issues that happen globally and nationally, there’s always stuff going on behind closed doors doors

 @B7K247Xfrom Ontario  agreed…9mos9MO

Above average

Pierre Poilievre refuses to get a background check, Mark Carney does not.

 @B8F7C5Kfrom Ontario  agreed…8mos8MO

Above average

I think he’s a great communicator, thinks before he speaks and is very articulate. Could be more forthcoming but that’s most politicians

 @B7NYKVJfrom Ontario  agreed…9mos9MO

Above average

They’re all politicians. Any sort of openness is out of the ordinary.

 @B7Q87YKfrom Quebec  agreed…9mos9MO

Above average

I like how he manipulates Donald Trump. It might be frustrating that he tries to flatter him, but that’s part of the whole strategy and Prime Minister Carney just knows what he’s doing. He’s very intelligent.
