It's always easy to look at either the politics of division or fear as effective tools in politics, but ultimately, even though they can be effective tools to help you get elected, they hinder your ability to actually get the job of building a better future for this country, for this community, done.

Since I became Liberal leader, I've focused on building a better Canada for the middle class.

Who cares about winning? We should focus on serving.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Big global players like China need to do a better job of respecting human rights.

I think that Canadians in general very much understand... that we need to engage in the world and stand up for human rights.

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

My mom has always been so generous and so sensitive and so vulnerable and yet exudes so much strength.

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