Ottawa Now - Nanos survey says Canadians remain financially pessimistic in the Carney regime's early stages
September 18, 2025
Back in late-April, Mark Carney had successfully secured the country’s top job. And while things were looking bleak on the economic front leading up to the federal election, there was a breeze of cautious optimism once the new Liberal government moved into the House of Commons.

When you google the wunderkind painter Anna Weyant, the suggested searches are as follows: “Anna Weyant Larry Gagosian relationship” (referring to her dalliance with the now eighty-year-old world-famous art dealer and gallerist her detractors say launched her career); “Anna Weyant Jason Isbell” (the more age-appropriate singer she’s moved on with); “Anna Weyant age” (only thirty); “Anna Weyant net worth” (somewhere in the millions, it’s speculated); “Anna Weyant art for sale” (certainly unaffordable and unavailable).
