Am I a Sheep? — Carney Self-Test

The Completely Unscientific Political Self-Test

AM I A SHEEP?

Do you believe everything Mark Carney says — or do you occasionally check the facts?

1. When Carney says the economy is improving, I…

Check the data first. Sounds right — he knows economics. Look at what supporters and critics say.

2. When Carney announces a new policy, I usually…

Read the details and consider the consequences. Support it immediately. See what different commentators think.

3. If someone criticizes Carney, I assume they are…

Worth listening to — they might have a point. Probably wrong or ignorant. Possibly right, possibly wrong.

4. I get most of my political information from…

Several different sources. Mostly sources that agree with me. A mixture of news, commentary and primary sources.

5. When inflation, housing or immigration are discussed…

Evidence matters more than personalities. Carney probably has the answer. I compare competing explanations.

6. If Carney changes his position on an issue…

I ask why and examine the new evidence. He must have a good reason. Politicians change positions sometimes.

7. I believe politicians should be trusted because…

Trust should be earned through evidence and results. Leaders deserve confidence. Healthy skepticism is important.

8. Before sharing a Carney interview online, I…

Check the context and verify important claims. Share it if I agree with it. Watch or read the full interview first.

9. When polls show people disagreeing with Carney…

That’s part of democracy. The polls must be wrong. I look at the methodology and sample.

10. The statement I agree with most is…

No politician is above scrutiny. Trust the expert, always. Question everyone equally.

Satire only. This quiz is completely unscientific and does not measure intelligence, political knowledge, or whether you are actually a sheep. It simply encourages questioning political claims — from Carney or anyone else.
