"People have to know that when you sign a deal with Canada, a change in governments won't immediately..." — Justin Trudeau

This is the kind of balance people expect: both environment and the economy - not one or the other.

There is no debate about whether or not climate change is happening. We will deal with it as a challenge. But we also take it as an opportunity to invest.

It's important that people understand who I am and where I come from and not just have it shaped by purely political discourse.

We need the middle class to feel more confident about its prospects and about its future. We need to cut down on this anxiety that sees some people succeeding and the majority struggling - having to make choices between paying for their kids' education or saving for their own retirement.
