Freeland completed a bachelor’s degree at Harvard University, studying Russian history and literature before earning a master’s degree in Slavonic studies from the University of Oxford. She worked as a journalist in Ukraine and eventually held editorial positions at the Financial Times, The Globe and Mail and Reuters, becoming managing director of the latter. She also authored Sale of the Century: Russia’s Wild Ride from Communism to Capitalism (2000) and Plutocrats: The Rise of the New Global Super Rich and the Fall of Everyone Else (2012).
Thanks for that.
I get that she’s academically accomplished but I’m more interested in her political accomplishments.
Like others have mentioned she is not a great public speaker and I haven’t been particularly impressed by her budgets…

Honest question, why do you think that? I’ve never been impressed by her, but I’m likely missing a lot.
She seems more down to earth then Justin Trudeau

She’s fairly new, I guess Mark Carney will be next leader. He will give Pollievre a run for his money.
