Pierre Trudeau

When Pierre Trudeau decided it was time to leave office, he took a walk in the snow. At the rate things are going for Justin Trudeau, that’s a luxury he may not have; the sand on Vancouver Island’s beaches may have to do.

As the American election creeps closer with two radically different visions for the country, backed by fiercely polarized political factions, the U.S. appears poised for another tense election cycle. From a climate perspective, the choice is clear.

A momentary snapshot can send the public a strong signal about what a politician's fate could be. It can seem to seal that fate.

We keep hearing that Canada "is broken" — and now, that it "needs to be gutted and rebuilt from the ground up." But from climate change to health care and housing, our challenges require more Ottawa, not less. It's time for Justin Trudeau to say as much.

Pierre Trudeau famously said, "There's no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation." Now, more than half a century later, why does the otherwise freedom-obsessed Pierre Poilievre keep promising to insert it into our private lives?

Conservatives think that the Trudeau vision of a "post-national" country is responsible for everything from social disorder to anti-Semitic violence. Why they're wrong, and how our national identity is inextricably linked with Pierre and Justin.

We have an urgent housing crisis and this is evidence of how inefficient it is to wait for the private sector to deliver housing affordability.

The polls are starting to show a meaningful bounce in Liberal support — one that could portend a much better year for Justin Trudeau's government in 2024 than it had in 2023.

In 1965, Liberal Prime Minister Lester Pearson brought Pierre Elliott Trudeau into politics in order to shore up his bench — and eventually take his job. Is it time for Justin Trudeau to do the same with Mark Carney?

In his latest YouTube video, CPC Leader Pierre Poilievre says he can get Canadians out of "housing hell." But his misunderstanding of the past makes it hard to see how he can figure out the future, writes columnist Max Fawcett.

Nate Erskine-Smith has been a federal MP since 2015. Now, he wants to lead the Ontario Liberal Party back to relevance. Can he do it?

Our elected officials seem determined to dumb down the political discourse as far as humanly possible. Why we need to elevate the conversation, and how a simple test could help us do that.

After the U.S. Supreme Court struck down its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision on Friday, June 24, 2022, — the ruling that had, for decades, guaranteed a woman's right to get an abortion across the United States — Liberal politicians north of the border were were quick to suggest that Canadians shouldn't take their freedoms for granted.

Canada may not be ready for “Poilievremania” just yet, but the massive crowds showing up to his rallies are a clear sign the Conservative Party of Canada is embracing him with a similar degree of enthusiasm.

With the right message and the right leadership, the occupation of Ottawa can end, writes columnist Max Fawcett. And when it’s over, we need to take full stock of who was really behind it — and what they wanted to achieve.
