I don't see anything in the article about Brookfield being a current investor in Twitter.
The only thing I could find is an article about them shuttering the venture capital arm and the person who made the investment leaving the firm. Is there more up-to-date info about Carney even being a passive investor in Twitter?

They did a complicated fold of it into a new enterprise of which Carney is still a major shareholder
I'm sorry to be that guy but I'm still unable to find anything that shows Brookfield currently holding any part of xAI (owner or Twitter/X).
I did find a mention of the guy who got fired from Brookfield for wanting to invest in X suing Brookfield for backing out of a $100 million investment. Also, an article from NYT says as part of the lawsuit:
Even if Brookfield currently hold $5 million worth of X, how would that affect policy by Carney who is no longer part of any decision making process at Brookfield. It would be a major controversy if there was evidence he was somehow still involved.
