The rise of far right rhetoric is not unique to the U.S.

In this clip, rabble editor Nick Seebruch discusses the rise of far-right politics around the world, where Canada fits in, and how people can push back against extremism.

“The rise of Donald Trump is not unique inside the United States. We’re seeing a rise of far-right politics across the world.”

This is a clip from rabble’s most recent live politics panel: Off the Hill: The influence of U.S. politics in Canada. Guests this month included MP Charlie Angus, Stuart Trew and Nick Seebruch. Hosted by Robin Browne.
