Someone ordered a limo to Carney’s leadership launch — but the company doesn’t know who
An interesting turn of events unfolded at the Laurier Heights community centre in Edmonton where Mark Carney launched his bid for the Liberal leadership. A mysterious call was made to an Edmonton limousine service requesting one of their cars to show up at the venue. However, the caller did not leave a name and failed to show up themselves.
The limousine, designed to resemble a Rolls-Royce, arrived at the community centre approximately an hour before Carney was scheduled to make his announcement. The unexpected appearance of the luxury car sparked a frenzy on social media, with some speculating that Carney himself had arrived in the limo.
Despite the speculation, Carney’s campaign team confirmed that they had not arranged for the limo and were unaware of who had made the request. Carney arrived at the event in a regular car accompanied by one of his campaign volunteers.
The driver of the limo explained to reporters that he was there to pick someone up, but no one approached the vehicle during its brief stop at the venue. After waiting for approximately five minutes, the limo departed without fulfilling its mysterious purpose.
Sher Dhaliwal, the owner of the limousine company, shared that the driver attempted to contact the individual who had booked the vehicle, but received no response. The caller had neglected to provide a name when making the reservation, adding to the intrigue surrounding the peculiar incident.
The limo’s unexpected presence at Mark Carney’s leadership launch added an element of mystery to the event, leaving many curious about the identity and intentions of the elusive individual who had arranged for its appearance. Despite the confusion, Carney proceeded with his announcement in a regular car, undeterred by the peculiar turn of events.
