Chrystia Freeland apparently was told last Friday via Zoom call that Canada’s prime minister had lost confidence in her and she was being replaced by Mark Carney

Former finance minister learned of Trudeau’s decision to replace her before she quit: report

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was planning to replace now-former Minister of Finance Chrystia Freeland with globalist-linked former central banker Mark Carney, according to insiders.

At least two inside sources, as reported by the Globe and Mail, said Freeland, who quit as finance minister Monday, learned on a Zoom call last Friday from Trudeau that Carney, the former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor, would take over her job.

The sources noted that Trudeau told Freeland he had lost confidence in her and the job was going to Carney. She was to be offered another role but considered it a demotion. However, Carney did not accept the job offer from Trudeau after Freeland resigned Monday, sources indicated.

According to the sources who remain confidential, it is not clear whether Carney had accepted a job offer to join the Trudeau government. However, sources close to the former head banker said he did not want to be a part of the government.

The move to replace Freeland with an unelected MP such as Carney would have been highly unusual.

Freeland on Monday sent shockwaves through Canada’s political circles after she announced her resignation from the Liberal cabinet, revealing that she did so after Trudeau asked her to step down as finance minister and move into a different position.

Her public resignation letter blasted Trudeau’s economic direction and apparent lack of willingness to work as a team player with the nation’s premiers.

Calls for Trudeau to resign intensified after Freeland stepped down.

The most recent polls show a Conservative government under its leader Pierre Poilievre would win a super majority were an election held today.

Carney has close ties in working with the World Economic Forum (WEF) on many files. He also supports globalist-backed energy regulations such as Canada’s punitive carbon tax.

As noted by LifeSiteNews, Carney may be even more extreme than Trudeau on the carbon tax after he rebuked the prime minister for exempting home heating oil from the carbon tax in some provinces.

Carney works for Brookfield Asset Management and the United Nations special envoy on climate action.

Critics say the World Economic Forum is behind the socialist “Great Reset” agenda of which Trudeau and some of his cabinet, including Freeland, are involved.

Freeland’s resignation not only sent shockwaves through Ottawa’s political circles but drew the attention of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. Earlier this week, he did not hold back in celebrating her departure, saying the “toxic” second-in-command will “not be missed.”

Mark Carney spent his entire life promoting the carbon tax.

Now he’s trying to scam Canadians out of billions and to do it he’s put a whole crew together.

Trump fires chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff, appoints new military leader

President Donald Trump announced Friday the dismissal of General Charles Brown, the current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump expressed his gratitude toward Brown for his extensive contributions and leadership, wishing him and his family a prosperous future. Brown’s departure marks a pivotal moment in U.S. military leadership following over 40 years of service.

“I want to thank General Charles “CQ” Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He is a fine gentleman and an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family,” Trump wrote.

Simultaneously, Trump introduced his nominee for Brown’s successor.

“Today, I am honored to announce that I am nominating Air Force Lieutenant General Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. General Caine is an accomplished pilot, national security expert, successful entrepreneur, and a “warfighter” with significant interagency and special operations experience,” Trump said.

Trump said Caine’s appointment comes after he was overlooked for advancement during former President Joe Biden’s presidency.

“General Caine was passed over for promotion by Sleepy Joe Biden. But not anymore! Alongside Secretary Pete Hegseth, General Caine and our military will restore peace through strength, put America First, and rebuild our military,” Trump said. President Trump also announced plans to appoint five additional senior military officials, tasks he has delegated to Secretary Hegseth.

It was reported Thursday that Hegseth plans to dismiss Brown as part of President Trump’s commitment to eliminate “wokeness” from the military. Brown reportedly appears on a list of proposed removals submitted to Congress.

Brown had previously expressed his wish to retain his position even after Trump took office, and according to sources speaking to NBC News in Dec. 2024, Trump seemingly moderated his views on the general. Biden nominated Brown as chairman in 2023, and despite a heated confirmation hearing where senators scrutinized his alleged implementation of racial quotas in Air Force hiring practices, he was confirmed.

Meanwhile, Brown’s replacement, Caine, took office as the associate director for Military Affairs at the CIA on Nov. 3, 2021, after serving as the director of Special Programs at the Pentagon. Lt. Gen. Dan Caine, an F-16 pilot with extensive experience including over 150 combat hours, was commissioned in 1990 and has held numerous key roles, from the White House staff to special operations, and balances his military career with entrepreneurial ventures.
