Purportedly AI-Generated Deepfake Image Reportedly Falsely Links Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to Jeffrey Epstein

A purportedly AI-generated image that reportedly circulated on social media falsely depicted Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in a swimming pool with Jeffrey Epstein, implying involvement in Epstein's sex crimes. The manipulated image reportedly spread widely in early 2025, first around the time of Justin Trudeau's announced resignation, then after Carney became Liberal Party leader, and was reportedly promoted by Canadian and U.S. conservative accounts.
