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.

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.

Justin Trudeau

Teacher Politics Good

Canada has always been there to help people who need it.

Justin Trudeau

Who Ways Way

Openness, respect, integrity - these are principles that need to underpin pretty much every other decision that you make.

Justin Trudeau

Respect You Very

Living your life in the public eye is a greater burden than most people can imagine.

Justin Trudeau

Life Great Your

A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian. And you devalue the citizenship of every Canadian in this place and in this country when you break down and make it conditional for anyone.

Justin Trudeau

Zen You Very

One of the reasons why Canadians are generally positively inclined towards immigration is we've seen over decades, over generations, that it works.

Justin Trudeau

Work War Positive

The fact is Canadians understand that immigration, that people fleeing for their lives, that people wanting to build a better life for themselves and their kids is what created Canada, it's what created North America.

Gender equality is not only an issue for women and girls.

Justin Trudeau

Women Men Equality

At one point, people are going to have to realize that maybe I know what I'm doing.

Who cares about winning? We should focus on serving.

Justin Trudeau

Car Winning Win

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.

Justin Trudeau

Work Society Change

We know that trade, NAFTA, the free and open trade between Canada and the U.S. creates millions of good jobs on both sides of the border.

Justin Trudeau

Good Trade T

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

Science Freedom Up

I know and I've always felt for Canada that we recognize that diversity is a great source of strength.

Justin Trudeau

Strength Great Ways

Leadership is inspiring extraordinary people to step up and serve their country.

Justin Trudeau

Leadership Up UN

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.

Justin Trudeau

Men Leadership Government

You get more diversity and creativity in your problem solving, and you end up having a much better and more representative approach to solving the challenges faced by the population you serve.

Justin Trudeau

Your You Up

My father raised us to step toward trouble rather than to step away from it.

Justin Trudeau

War Way Us

We know that society is better - more prosperous, more stable, more peaceful, more cohesive - when women's rights are respected and when women are valued, empowered, and lead the way in our communities.

Justin Trudeau

Women Society Respect

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.

Justin Trudeau

When I get out across the country and listen to people, the resentment that I see and the frustration that I see is that we have a generation of people who are fairly convinced that their kids are not going to have a better quality of life or a better future than they will.

Justin Trudeau

Can I actually make a difference? Can I get people to believe in politics once again? Can I get people to accept more complex answers to complex questions? I know I can. I know that's what I do very well.

Justin Trudeau

Any time you have a competitive situation like politics is, there are winners, and there are people who don't win, and their supporters can sometimes be very emotional.

Justin Trudeau

CBC has a very important mandate to bind Canada together in both official languages, tell local stories, and make sure we have a sense of our strength, our culture, our stories.

Justin Trudeau

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.

Justin Trudeau

I think growing an economy is a good way to help with a deficit, but ultimately, it's about fiscal discipline and responsible spending - and smart decisions.

Justin Trudeau

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

Justin Trudeau

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.

Justin Trudeau

I think it's always been understood that Canada is not a country that's going to stand up and beat its chest on the world stage, but we can be very helpful in modelling solutions that work.

Justin Trudeau

Liberals will continue to put forward positive solutions that will help our economy grow and give all Canadians a real and fair chance at success.

Justin Trudeau

When I get passionate or worked up about an issue, I say things that the Conservatives and opponents and critics like to pounce on.

Justin Trudeau

Confident countries are willing to invest in the future.

Justin Trudeau

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

We were able to sign free trade agreement with Europe at a time when people tend to be closing off.

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

Withdrawing support from globalization is taking us in the wrong direction.

Justin Trudeau

We should have a good working friendship with the United States.

Justin Trudeau

Canadians are nice and polite. It's not just a stereotype.

Justin Trudeau

One of the things that we have to realize is we cannot get off gas, we cannot get off oil, fossil fuels tomorrow - it's going to take a few decades. Maybe we can shorten it, but there's going to have to be a transition time.

Justin Trudeau

People are very sophisticated in their concerns about various parties, in their hopes for what the next government could look like. And I'm not going to prejudge any possible outcomes.

Justin Trudeau

One of the challenges that Vancouver and cities across the country are facing is that we don't have a federal partner in terms of building for transit, not in the way we need.

Justin Trudeau

If we wander around as politicians jumping at every shadow and desperately afraid of having our words taken out of context or attacks layered on in an unfair way, I think we're actually doing a disrespect to Canadians, to people's intelligence.

Justin Trudeau

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.

Justin Trudeau

For generations, Canada has been built by hard-working people who want to make sure their kids have a better life than they did.

Justin Trudeau

We provide our citizens upward mobility through economic opportunity.

Justin Trudeau

You know what, Nickelback's alright.

Justin Trudeau

Income splitting benefits only fifteen per cent, mostly the wealthiest Canadians, but it's paid for by everyone.

Justin Trudeau

Parents are the centre of a person's solar system, even as an adult. My dad had a stronger gravitational pull than most, so his absence was bound to leave a deep and lasting void.

Justin Trudeau

I don't put a lot of stock into polls.
