China has been running a ESG for a long time. However, the added twist they run is the governance part. If they play along nice with the CPP you get endorsed and promoted, Have differing views? well you get the axe.
ESG is considered on the political spectrum as far left, drawing many principles from marxism. Carney started talking about running as a centrist, and yet, his released platform is already pushing the party further left. I thought we all agreed here we want to see Canada come closer to the Centre.
