Canada: Mark Carney Faces Plagiarism Accusations for 1995 Oxford Doctoral Thesis
[HotAir] Liberal Leader Mark Carney has been accused of taking other people’s ideas as his own in the federal election campaign.

The National Post obtained a copy of Carney’s 1995 thesis for his doctorate in economics from Oxford University titled "The Dynamic Advantage of Competition." It shows 10 instances of apparent plagiarism, according to the judgment of three university academics who reviewed the material.

In several sections of his thesis, Carney used full quotes, paraphrases, or slightly modified quotes from four previous works without proper acknowledgement or attribution.

"He’s just directly repeating without quotations. That’s what we call plagiarism," said Geoffrey Sigalet, an assistant professor and member of UBC Okanagan president’s advisory committee on student discipline, which handles plagiarism cases for the university.
Why am I not surprised?
He continues a long and ignoble tradition.

#1 Canada is no longer relevant. They rank 26th in military power. Whatever they do won't affect us.

We should, however, issue travel warnings.

#2 Well, if he doesn’t get elected to lead Canada, it sounds like he has the background to be president of an Ivy Aleague university. Good backup plan.
