J.D.M. Stewart, author of The Prime Ministers, joins Stephen LeDrew to discuss how history will judge Justin Trudeau after a decade in office. From personality politics to the rise of woke ideology, Stewart explains why Trudeau’s tenure divided Canadians and how his approach to leadership differed from past prime ministers. The conversation tackles the long view of political legacy, the damage done to national unity, and the friction created by constant apologies for Canada’s past.Stewart also raises a broader concern that Canadian history is no longer being taught in a meaningful or rigorous way. With high school students learning little about our past, he argues that misinformation spreads easily and citizens lose their understanding of what it means to be Canadian. This episode covers political memory, national identity and why knowing our past matters now more than ever. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
