B.C. woman reveals the story behind Carney's 'Elbows Up' mystery bracelet

  • The bracelet often worn by Prime Minister Mark Carney is a friendship bracelet made by Justine Sones, a Liberal Party campaign worker from Maple Ridge, not a secret signal, as some conspiracy theorists suggested.
  • Justine Sones created the beaded bracelets during the Liberal campaign for Angie Rowell, using the slogan 'Elbows Up' to push back against U.S. President Donald Trump's comments.
  • The bracelet became popular among campaign volunteers and was gifted to Carney during a campaign event in Richmond, much to Sones' delight.
  • Sones expressed her surprise at the conspiracy theories and hopes the message 'Elbows Up' resonates with all Canadians, stating, 'We're all on the same team – we're all Canadians.
