Link to the summary. (Towards the bottom is a link to an appendix summary statement pdf, you'll want to click on that.)

The Honourable Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America.
Man...Fuck Trump.
[Edit] Oh, and Carney is invested in Palantir, along with seemingly every other American big tech company he possibly could be including the likes of Alphabet, Meta, AirBNB, DoorDash, Uber, Amazon, etc. No wonder he rolled over on the DST so easily.
[Edit to the edit] Also American weapons manufacturers such as Lockheed-Martin, Northrop Grumman, L3Harris.

I worked my whole life, saved what I could, and have investments. Does that make me bad?

I doubt many people are claiming that just having investments makes you bad. But depending on the specific nature of the investments, you could be. If someone ran out and invested in GardaWorld (or had them and didn't divest) after finding out they took part in building that concentration camp in Florida, I'd certainly judge them, as an example. But even casting it as a question of morality is beside the point, I think. It's a question of conflicts of interest. The personal wealth of our Prime Minister seems to be significantly tied up in the success of American industry. In the context of our current relations with the USA, that doesn't concern you even a little bit? Particularly considering the honestly pretty soft stance he's taken towards them post election?

Pro tip, don't have assets to begin with so you have no assets to hide.

But no one votes for those politicians 🤷

Hold the phone... Are they telling me the guy who ran multiple nations' banks has investments!?!?!?
I assume it is for transparency, so if he was heavily invested in Bell and then you see laws passed and contracts initiated they favoured Bell over Rogers, then you can see corruption.
