Carney and the Liberals are far from being fascist. He’s what could be considered centre-right, before American politics completely destroyed people’s understanding of the political spectrum.

He has socially centre-left beliefs while being somewhat mildly fiscally conservative. That’s a type of politician Canada has not had in years and part of why he has been so popular lately, especially with moderate conservatives who have felt unrepresented.

Also this is not surprising if you remember who he is replacing. He knows has to distance himself from Trudeau’s government or he is going to lose.
