Cringe No More: Carney Calls Halt To Trudeau’s Feminist Foreign Policy

Prime Minister Mark Carney, backing away from a key international priority of his Liberal predecessors, says his government does not have a feminist foreign policy.

Cabinet ministers under former prime minister Justin Trudeau announced in 2017 that their government had a feminist foreign policy, and they continued to refer to the policy for years after.

Their support deepened further in 2020 when the government promised to draft a full document to define the policy.

But despite years of backroom discussions by federal officials, no document was ever published. And now Mr. Carney is distancing himself from the concept.
