Some of the responses here fail to understand that feminism is not just about advancing the cause of women. It's about advancing the cause of a just humanity.  When women are treated fairly, that society has learned something and is more likely to treat all minorities fairly.  Ms. Brown's praise for Trudeau and Macron may be a bit overblown, but it is a pleasure to find leaders these days who deserve any praise. And remember, politics is always the art of the possible. Trudeau might be able to push the liberal envelope further, or he might not. He is not perfect, by a long shot, but he is not Harper either.
