    14. Why Carney will fail

    Mark Carney is more popular than ever. He has made many big promises about building the economy and creating jobs. But the truth is he is captaining a sinking ship, and the working class will be made to pay for the crisis of the system—no matter what Carney says. This week, Joel is joined by Marco La Grotta to discuss how Carney's promises measure up to reality—and why his honeymoon won't last forever. 📖 Recommended reading:Alberta-Canada pipeline agreement threatens Liberal majority Selling the kitchen sink: Carney’s privatization plan REGISTER for Edmonton's Communist Summer School 🫵 Join the Revolutionary Communist Party📰Subscribe to Communist Revolution, the newspaper of the RCP▶️ YouTube📱 Apple Podcasts📸Instagram💬 X💻Facebook New episodes of The Class Line every Friday.Listen wherever you get your podcasts Recorded on June 11, 2026.
