Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has suggested that Donald Trump’s victory shows women’s rights are “under attack” and that “regressive forces” are taking hold across America.
Trudeau, an ultra-progressive who describes himself as a “proud feminist,” gave a speech at the Equal Voice Foundation on Tuesday where he argued America was facing “regressive forces” led by Trump and his political movement.
“It shouldn’t be that way. It wasn’t supposed to be that way. We were supposed to be on a steady — if difficult sometimes — march towards progress,” Trudeau said. “And, yet, just a few weeks ago the United States voted for a second time, to not elect its first woman president.”
“Everywhere, women’s rights and women’s progress is under attack — overtly and subtly, but I want you to know that I am and always will be a proud feminist,” he continued.
“You will always have an ally in me and my government.”

Trudeau’s remarks come just over a month after Donald Trump’s historic victory against Kamala Harris, a result that would likely have come as a massive blow to his left-wing government.
Last week, the two men met at Mar-a-Lago to discuss bilateral relations ahead of his return to the White House, with a particular focus on the lack of border security between the two countries.
I can’t stop thinking about this…
Trudeau just got owned by Trump.
4 days after Canada was threatened with tariffs, our fearless leader was begging for mercy at Mar-a-Lago.

However, Trump has since mocked the Canadian leader, describing him as merely the “governor” of the “great state” of Canada, despite the fact that it is a sovereign country that has never had a shared territory with the United States.
“It was a pleasure to have dinner the other night with Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“I look forward to seeing the Governor again soon so that we may continue our in-depth talks on Tariffs and Trade, the results of which will be truly spectacular for all!”
