Mark Carney, the internationally respected Governor of the Bank of Canada has quit to become the Governor of the Bank of England. His term begins next summer. The move was announced this morning by Finance Minister Jim Flaherty who called it a bittersweet moment. The Minister said he’s pleased to see Carney take on new responsibilities, but the governor will be missed at home.
