Ultimately, being open and respectful towards each other is much more powerful as a way to diffuse hatred and anger than, you know, layering on, you know, big walls and oppressive policies.

The most important thing the federal government can do is actually sit down with municipal leaders and provincial premiers to talk about the challenges they're facing in their particular areas. That's something I've committed to being a much better partner on than this current government, which doesn't like to talk to other levels of government.
Justin Trudeau
Let's try and bring out the best in all of us and a positive vision of working together to solve big problems, to recognize that, yes, all is not right, things need to be fixed. We're better off solving things by working together than by pointing fingers at other people.
Justin Trudeau
The world today is a very different one. Social media, which I use as a way of connecting with people, is something that my father never got to use. I'm not worried about defending my father's legacy. I'm very much worried about what the future holds.
Justin Trudeau
I'm happy when people decide that they are more aligned with me and my party but they should also think about being active and aligned with the parties that disagree with me on certain issues.
Justin Trudeau
I'd like to see more Canadians of diverse backgrounds engaging with parties that line up with their convictions and ideologies to make sure that no party gets to run against Muslim Canadians or any other group of Canadians and demonize them.

Justin Trudeau
I don't read the newspapers, I don't watch the news. I figure, if something important happens, someone will tell me.
Justin Trudeau
People think that boxing is all about how hard you can hit your opponent. It's not. Boxing is about how hard a hit you can take and keep going.
Justin Trudeau
I look at what I have as a challenge and I could list a whole bunch of different challenges. And I choose not to be daunted by any of them.
Justin Trudeau
My father's values and vision of this country obviously form everything I have as values and ideals. But this is not the ghost of my father running for the leadership of the Liberal party. This is me.
Justin Trudeau
So having a little more of an awareness of what's going on in the rest of the world I think is what many Canadians would hope for Americans.
Justin Trudeau
Canada must be progressive, and Canada must be a just society.
Justin Trudeau
We're getting companies to invest in Canada, to expand their workforces, to do more R&D. I think people are looking at Canada and realizing we're a place that is building for the long term and where the world's going to be.
Justin Trudeau
The way to build a strong future is by both protecting the environment and creating good jobs.
Justin Trudeau
My idea of freedom is that we should protect the rights of people to believe what their conscience dictates, but fight equally hard to protect people from having the beliefs of others imposed upon them.
Justin Trudeau
You cannot let yourself be defined by the hopes that you will fulfill the darkest wishes of your opponents.
Justin Trudeau
There's a lotta countries that do very well at dropping bombs. There are other things that Canada actually does better than most other countries. And one of them is training people on the ground.
Justin Trudeau
I am, as many people are, inspired by Jack Layton's legacy and the way that he approached politics.
Justin Trudeau
Canada has some very, very dark histories, from internments to turning away the St. Louis and the Komagata Maru, but none is darker than our abject failure to respect rights, the spirit and intent of the original treaties with First Nations, Métis Nation, and Inuit peoples. We have to transform that relationship.
Justin Trudeau
