Infantino should have awarded Brookfield some lucrative contracts

FIFA being corrupt is a well known fact. But up until now the people at the top at least realized not to cut the goose that lays golden eggs. Infantino did just that.

Carney needs to stick to politics and/or economics.

Welp, when someone is so corrupt that even FIFA thinks he goes too far, you know that someone is in a whole different league.

I feel the same about Carny. They can both go and chase a ball off a cliff.

Easy bait and win. Ask him about Modi or Xi.

Worth noting that FIFA does require a pretty big separation between government and football associations. To the point of suspending the Indian FA on the eve of the U17 Women’s World Cup in 2022.
In theory this prevents corruption and means FIFA money benefits soccer rather than governments. And lets FIFA pretend to be immune to politics. In practice it means FIFA only has to bribe FAs on most issues, not governments.
But it does mean that it really doesn’t matter what Carney or his secretary of sport says. At least unless Canada were to bid to host another FIFA event, which would need government backing. It’s just posturing, the only way it isn’t is if you buy the rather deranged theories that football associations are about to mass disaffiliate from FIFA and make their own breakaway federation.
