Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau commented on Friday just a short time after a rally in Bolton, Ont. was cancelled due to safety concerns, saying he had "never seen this intensity of anger" on the campaign trail and spoke about how, from his perspective, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an increase in anxiety, anger, frustration and powerlessness for people who feel the world is unfolding "in ways they can't control."
He said while the event had to be cancelled, he would continue to speak with Canadians and said this election was a chance to choose what kind of future the country wants to see and he wants to hear the concerns people have, adding he's "ready for hope" and to do "big things."
Asked if he had potentially inflammed some of the rhetoric in the campaign, Trudeau said they need to "reflect in our role as citizens in a democracy, as leaders in how we choose to bring Canadians together."
