Mark Carney has released a second campaign video featuring actor Mike Myers, who is endorsing Carney's leadership as the Liberal party heads into an election. The video was shared on Carney's X account and shows the two men in Hockey Canada jerseys chatting on a bench. In the video, Myers expresses hope that Canada continues to be “the good guys.” Carney adds a lighthearted remark about getting “elbows up” in tough situations, implying readiness to stand firm when needed. However, their background of holding multiple passports raised eyebrows online, with some users questioning their Canadian identity. The new video follows a previous one where Carney tested Myers' Canadian knowledge through trivia. This included questions about cultural figures like the Tragically Hip and Canadian seasons. Myers responded well and ended the quiz with a confident remark about Canada's future. Carney, who is originally from Canada, has British and Irish citizenship as well, which he plans to give up. Myers, a dual citizen of Canada, the UK, and the US, shared insights from his childhood in Canada, reflecting on how it shaped his success in Hollywood. During their discussion, Myers defended the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) against calls for its closure, stating it is essential to Canada. He praised Carney, saying the world needs more sensible leaders, signaling his support for the Liberal agenda.
