What we can confirm

Available data indicate that Mark Carney has overseen the **weakest first‑year real GDP growth of any Canadian prime minister since at least the early 1960s**, with real GDP essentially flat or slightly negative since he took office, so the core claim about his economic debut being the worst in at least 63 years based on real GDP growth is supported by current reporting, though the precise figure of a 0.05% drop is an approximate characterization rather than an officially highlighted statistic.
