Justin Trudeau
I am so proud of my family, and I am happy to give them all the limelight they want because heaven knows I got more than I need.Collection: Family
I have spent an awful lot of time listening to Canadians, learning from them, working with them.Collection: Learning
We're investing billions of dollars in housing, in home care on the medical side. We're investing billions of dollars in public transit that is not just creating good jobs now but is going to help people get to and from their good jobs in more reliable ways.Collection: Medical
A very powerful mechanism to get elected is to play on anger and pick those wedge issues.Collection: Anger
We need to make sure we're all working together to change mindsets, to change attitudes, and to fight against the bad habits that we have as a society.Collection: Change
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.Collection: Future
Anytime I meet people who got to make the deliberate choice, whose parents chose Canada, I'm jealous. Because I think being able to choose it, rather than being Canadian by default, is an amazing statement of attachment to Canada.Collection: Amazing
Gender equality is not only an issue for women and girls.Collection: Equality
I know and I've always felt for Canada that we recognize that diversity is a great source of strength.Collection: Strength
If you're a progressive, you really should be a feminist because it's about equality, it's about respect, it's about making the best of the world that we have.Collection: Equality
You can't run a government from one single person. What instead matters is that leadership be about gathering around extraordinary individuals and getting the best out of them.Collection: Leadership
Once Canadians no longer believe that there is any good in politics, they no longer feel we can work together to solve the challenges we're facing, and that is my fundamental motivation: how do we work together as a country to solve the big challenges we're facing.Collection: Politics
I'm proud to be a feminist because making sure that everyone understands we all have a role in fighting for equality is the only way to move forward.Collection: Equality
I am a teacher. It's how I define myself. A good teacher isn't someone who gives the answers out to their kids but is understanding of needs and challenges and gives tools to help other people succeed. That's the way I see myself, so whatever it is that I will do eventually after politics, it'll have to do a lot with teaching.Collection: Politics
When my dad left public life, I was 13 years old. I went through my teen years and into adulthood in relative anonymity. After my dad's funeral, I was suddenly recognizable to people I passed on the street.Collection: Teen
We have created a society where individual rights and freedoms, compassion and diversity are core to our citizenship. But underlying that idea of Canada is the promise that we all have a chance to build a better life for ourselves and our children.Collection: Society
We should have a good working friendship with the United States.Collection: Friendship
Openness, respect, integrity - these are principles that need to underpin pretty much every other decision that you make.Collection: Respect
I am in politics because every day, I get to work to make the world a little better - for my kids and for yours.Collection: Politics
One of the reasons why Canadians are generally positively inclined towards immigration is we've seen over decades, over generations, that it works.
I became a high school teacher for many years because it was a very tangible, concrete way where I could make a difference, and quite frankly, the kids didn't care who my father had been, because it was late '90s; none of them were around or remembered my father.
Quite frankly, I talk about the fact that I'm a feminist as often as I can, and every time I do, it gets huge reaction, and media reacts, and the Twitterverse explodes and things like that, because here I am saying I'm a feminist. I will keep saying that until there is no more reaction to that when I say it, because that's where we want to get to.
As soon as you're locking doors, you're narrowing your circle. And your circle gets smaller and smaller until it's finally just yourself and your buddy and you've got no one to party with.
The best counter to the kind of radicalization and marginalization that we've seen in other parts of the world is to create an inclusive society where everyone, including especially Muslim Canadians, have every opportunity to succeed, just like anybody else.
People have to know that when you sign a deal with Canada, a change in governments won't immediately scrap the jobs and benefits coming from it.
I think that Canadians in general very much understand... that we need to engage in the world and stand up for human rights.
Big global players like China need to do a better job of respecting human rights.
If a middle-class family in Shanghai or Guangzhou is looking for a good-quality product, we want them to look at a maple leaf and say, 'OK, it's good quality.'
I don't put a lot of stock into polls.
I think this is the story of this country, that you get to come here and build a better future for yourself and for your neighbours than you could have anywhere else in the world.
Every day, at home, I have the astonishing and humbling opportunity - together with my wife Sophie - to nurture empathy, compassion, self-love, and a keen sense of justice in our three kids.
I want my sons to escape the pressure to be a particular kind of masculine that is so damaging to men and to the people around them.
For generations, Canada has been built by hard-working people who want to make sure their kids have a better life than they did.
Income splitting is not a wise investment for Canadians.
Income splitting is a cynical policy, designed by a tired government short on ideas, now reheating old concoctions as their next campaign policy menu.
Canada's extraordinary success is that we have bound together a vast country with a set of shared ideas and beliefs.
I have nothing against wealth; I believe that government has a role to play in creating it by supporting pro-growth policies. However, success comes with responsibility.
One of the jokes among our family was that whenever Dad went to the movies, he insisted on getting his senior citizen's discount. It was laughable to view him as a traditional senior citizen; he was one of the most robust people I ever knew. Until, very suddenly, he wasn't.
Of all the memories I have of my father and of our relationship, none is warmer and more poignant than what happened a year before he died, when he came to visit me while I was teaching at West Point Grey Academy in Vancouver.
Throughout our history, Canada's immigration policy has brought people here who had a pathway to citizenship. They were - and are - nation builders. It has been supported by political parties of all stripes and promoted by successive governments over generations.
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.
I think Canada has a great story, and I'm glad to tell it. And if there's a moment where the world is paying a little more attention to Canada, well, I think it's important to try and capitalize on that.
We need to make sure that everyone's pulling their weight and doing their fair share. Canadians get that, including the wealthy Canadians I talk to.
One of the fundamental responsibilities of any Canadian prime minister is to get our resources to market.
We went through a long phase where we defined ourselves in opposition to other people and other countries.
As someone who grew up with a father who was the prime minister, many people liked me, and many didn't. I don't pay much attention to labels and certainly don't let people define me through the labels they apply. I stay focused on what I need to do.
In regards to the United States, Canadians expect me to stand up for our values and defend our interests and to have a constructive relationship with our largest trading partner and closest neighbour.
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.
As a prime minister, my job is not to try and influence or opine on what a leader of a different country should be doing.
My job is to do the best possible job for my country, and I wouldn't want someone else telling me what I should be doing in Canada.
