had significant differences from the others in many ways.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

Think of Jean ChrΓ©tien, someone who came to politics

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

with very low expectations that he would become the very deft political animal with the instincts that he had that brought him to be a long-lasting prime minister.

Brian Mulroney was a different kind of animal altogether.

Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

I think the biggest difference between Mark Carney and maybe Jean ChrΓ©tien and Brian Mulroney and John Turner, if we're going to go there, is I don't think Mark Carney spent his life thinking that the path to the top job in the country involved being in active politics.

that he made this life even more than Brian Mulroney somewhere else.

Brian Mulroney wanted that job.

That makes him a bit different from any prime minister we've had before.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

None of them walked in the House of Commons for the first time in the job of prime minister.

But Bruce lives in that head.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

He's not the only one.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

Good news for once.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

I watched the announcement that AirAsia was buying 150 planes from Airbus out in Mirabel.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

It's a big deal.

The Bridge with Peter Mansbridge
Good Talk -- Do Canadians Care About Alberta?

It's $19 billion, but it's also buying an airplane that the Quebec government supported throughout its creation.
