Justin Trudeau’s decade-long run as Canada’s Prime Minister is ending, marking a dramatic shift in Canadian politics. Once a symbol of progressive optimism, Trudeau is now grappling with plummeting popularity, a fractured Liberal Party, and mounting challenges from a surging Conservative opposition under Pierre Poilievre. In this episode, Roy Field Brown speaks with political commentators Laura Babcock and Adam Khan to dissect Trudeau’s legacy, his downfall, and the road ahead for Canada.


From ambitious immigration targets and a housing crisis to economic stagnation and divisive COVID-19 policies, Trudeau’s missteps have alienated both the political center and his progressive base. Compounding this is an emboldened far-right influence in Canada, fueled by rhetoric spilling over from the United States. As Trump eyes Canada in his rhetoric, even suggesting a borderless North America, the stakes have never been higher. Can the Liberals regroup under new leadership like Mark Carney to fend off a Conservative majority, or will 2025 mark a seismic political realignment?

Quotes from the Episode:

  1. “Trudeau thought his charm and the family name would carry him through, but hubris blinded him to the mounting political storm.” – Laura Babcock
  2. “Pierre Poilievre’s populism isn’t MAGA; it’s targeted, class-based, and resonates with both urban and rural Canadians.” – Adam Khan
  3. “Canada is in a perfect storm: post-pandemic anxiety, inflation, housing shortages, and a rising tide of right-wing extremism.” – Laura Babcock
  4. “If young people can’t afford homes, we’re facing a societal collapse—it’s not just an economic issue, it’s a moral one.” – Roy Field Brown
  5. “The left must reclaim its mantle of economic fairness before the right completely co-opts it with empty populist rhetoric.” – Roy Field Brown
