“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.”

“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.”

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

“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.”

“I have spent an awful lot of time listening to Canadians, learning from them, working with 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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Much more a skiing family than a hockey family, my dad wasn't a big fan of the arenas early in the morning on the weekends.”

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

“A very powerful mechanism to get elected is to play on anger and pick those wedge issues.”

“Nobody knows better than I do what the pressures of party leadership can do to a young family. It tore mine apart.”

“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.”
