    Jaime Watt: Carney signals a welcome new approach to governing. It’s about accountability

    Prime Minister Mark Carney’s approach signals a new approach: clarity over clutter, flexibility over prescription. It’s an invitation to lead — and a test of who can.

    Great … accountability! … so they’re going to try to bring back proportional representation? … no?

      Canadian government employees still lag in returning to physical workplaces, and this needs to be rectified if the government is to maximize professionalism

      This non sequitur was the point at which I suddenly felt my suspicions of the writer being full of shit completely validated.

      Ha, had the exact same “huh, wait what?” Moment.

      If we want to recruit and maintain the best while underpaying them and reducing physical overhead, remote work seems ideal.

          entire piece sounded like “sponsored by Liberal Party of Canada”… RTO mandate is idiotic as issue of “under-performance” is largely a management issue and not an employee issue. In other words it’s a free admission that management is clueless and has no idea how to harness remote to it’s full potential.

              Yes, although Carney has a free hand to admit that management is incompetent because it’s a management he inherited from Trudeau’s government, not one he hired himself. Carney worked at Goldman Sachs which has an infamous ultra competitive work culture. I could see him being annoyed with any manager as laid back as Trudeau was as PM.

                  As I commented, the Toronto Star is owned by Postmedia Network, which is in turn majority owned by GOP connected American VCs.

                  It’s a propaganda rag, not worth the shit you wipe off your ass with it.

                        Postmedia owns a lot of Canadian papers listed at that link, but Toronto Star isn’t among them.

                            Maybe elsewhere - in Toronto, The Sun is just a piece of trash. Definitely down with calling that one out.

                              Why would you re-post the same misinformation three times and then keep all three posts up after you’ve been corrected twice? The Star is not owned by Post Media.

                                  That’s weird. They usually slag the non-conservative rep super-hard; like, tan-suit hard.

                                    ‘Lag’. That’s funny. One of my day contracts is to a gov entity, and it’s 100% remote work. They CAN’T go back, as their workforce spread out so far (hint: low rent but great internet) that a RTO means 30% loss of workforce if everyone who can actually returns. There’s no desks. There’s no equipment because everyone uses their much-better stuff that hasn’t died since CoViD. They can’t outfit staff.

                                    It’s comedy.

                                      The theory I’ve heard that seems to be coming true is that America wanted Carney in order to build a pipeline through Quebec, using a constitutional crisis as the opportunity to do so. Pierre wouldn’t be able to as a Con, but a progressive doing so will be palatable enough theoretically.

                                      If Fox news started praising Biden I’d be equally suspicious, definitely their donors pushing an agenda.

                                        Yes, this is a list of US-owned papers. Note that the Toronto Star is not on it.

                                          Yes, although Carney has a free hand to admit that management is incompetent because it’s a management he inherited from Trudeau’s government, not one he hired himself. Carney worked at Goldman Sachs which has an infamous ultra competitive work culture. I could see him being annoyed with any manager as laid back as Trudeau was as PM.

                                          that is assuming Carney understands remote, which I’m not certain of.
