Throne speech: Did Trudeau, Liberals play it safe?
Description
September 23, 2020
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is promising a national childcare and early education system as the coronavirus pandemic continues to batter gender equality gains by forcing Canadian women out of the workforce. But just how such an unprecedented national system could work is unclear and there were few concrete signs in the throne speech presented Wednesday. Global's Mercedes Stephenson convenes a panel of strategists from the Liberals, Conservatives, and the NDP to break down what came out of the most recent Throne speech, and asks if the Liberals chose to play it safe with their announcements.
