Prime Minister Mark Carney’s private business ties are under scrutiny as federal officials scramble to “manage all the conflicts” linked to his and his wife’s financial interests.

Staff try to manage all the conflicts of interest for PM & Mrs. Carney, discloses @PrivyCouncilCa: "We are working very closely with the PMO to manage all the conflicts he has," MPs are told.  https://t.co/hv3NMwpChF @ShannonStubbsMP pic.twitter.com/u8VE41fn23

Deputy Privy Council Clerk Christiane Fox revealed this effort during recent testimony, admitting close collaboration with the PM’s Office to address Carney’s declared conflicts as reported by Blacklock’s.

Details, however, remain scarce.

Before securing the Liberal leadership on January 15, Carney held high-profile roles at Bloomberg L.P., Goldman Sachs, Brookfield Asset Management, and Stripe.com.

His wife, Diana, served as a senior advisor for Eurasia Group and Terramera Inc., the latter receiving $3.2 million in federal agriculture grants.

Mark Carney’s role as chair of Brookfield Asset Management raises serious financial questions, especially since he held $9.8 million in stock options. Brookfield is not only the largest landlord in Toronto, but also owns Westinghouse Electric Canada, a federal contractor, raising further financial red flags.

At the Commons transport committee, Conservative MP Shannon Stubbs pressed cabinet on Bill C-5, which allows Carney’s team to fast-track industrial projects “in the national interest.” When Stubbs inquired about ethical safeguards for the PM, silence followed.

Intergovernmental Affairs Minister Dominic LeBlanc deflected, citing the Ethics Commissioner, and Fox reiterated that conflicts are being managed.

“I just wanted to say quite clearly that at the Privy Council Office we are working very closely with the Prime Minister’s Office to manage all of the conflicts that he has declared, and that is operationalized within communications between the Privy Council Office and the Prime Minister’s Office,” she said. “That would relate to anything including this bill.”

Stubbs pointed out that the ministers responsible for handling the potential conflicts seemed uninformed.

Carney’s response to questions about his investments has been dismissive. On March 17, he told reporters, “I am complying with the rules,” brushing off concerns with, “Look inside yourself,” as he was pressed by CBC’s Rosemary Barton.

He accused journalists of assuming “conflict and ill will,” framing his private sector exit as a sacrifice for Canada.

“Your line of questioning is trying to invent new rules,” he snapped.

Canadians deserve better than deflections. With Carney’s extensive corporate ties and a bill granting broad project approval powers, transparency is non-negotiable. The PM must address these concerns head-on, not hide behind vague and empty assurances. Ethical governance demands clarity, and trust is earned through openness, not rhetoric.
