Conservatives should have kept the focus of their attacks on Mark Carney on the Brookfield story.

By pulling former PM Stephen Harper into it, they have created fertile ground for the Liberals to say that Harper was actively trying to recruit Carney as finance minister in 2012 .

If Carney is exaggerating his well-documented accomplishments in helping Canada emerge from the 2008 worldwide financial crisis, then why did Harper not only want Carney to succeed the late Jim Flaherty as the finance minister, but also appoint Carney to head the Bank of Canada .
