MONTREAL — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says progressive politicians need to do a better job bridging their lofty aspirations with people's day-to-day struggles in order to counter the right wing.
He made the comments today while participating in a panel at the Progress Action Summit in Montreal. Other panel participants included Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and former Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin.
Trudeau said progressives need to make the case that their ideals, such as an inclusive economy and fighting climate change, can also provide solutions to issues facing everyday households. Trudeau said those on the right wing of the political spectrum are able to attract followers by amplifying their anxieties and use disagreements about identity issues to undermine progressive messaging.
He says leaders must make people feel that progressive policies work and restore optimism in the future.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 16, 2023.
