One year into his mandate, Prime Minister Mark Carney is navigating a period of increased public and political attention. Has his leadership delivered on key promises around economic reform, climate action, housing, and reconciliation? This lecture provides a critical assessment of Carney’s governance style, policy decisions, and political strategy as it relates to a Saskatchewan context. Through expert analysis we explore the emerging legacy of Canada’s new leader and what his first year signals for the country’s future.
