Canada's main opposition party has criticized the recent Liberal leadership debate. Conservative MP Michael Barrett expressed surprise that no one challenged Mark Carney on his views regarding the carbon tax or his stance on immigration, despite Carney's previous statements claiming to have a plan to crack down on immigration.

The Conservatives also called on Mark Carney to clarify his proficiency in French after a colleague had to correct him during a live debate. Reports indicate that Carney mistakenly stated in a French-language debate about the future of Gaza that he agreed with Hamas, a comment that Freeland immediately corrected.
