Trudeau hit with pipeline protest in UK
Yet Venditti said it was "very hypocritical of the prime minister to be here in London talking about climate change while building a climate-wrecking pipeline that can only lead to more fossil fuels being burned".
Tuesday's speech came only hours after French President Emmanuel Macron, in many ways Trudeau's political doppelganger, raised numerous same issues at the European Parliament, where he warned about a "European civil war" between democracy and rising authoritarianism.
A number of MPs grumbled audibly about the trade deal, known as CETA.
Trudeau began his address with a now-familiar message, sermonizing about the fear and anxiety that's at work around the globe, pushing the disenfranchised further away from what he considers the shared progressive goals the world ought to be working toward.
"It is at this time that we have to admit that change does not always amount to progress", Trudeau said in French. "The world they hope to build".
Trudeau suggested a wave of "ignorance" was threatening Europe and he urged France to remain a progressive bulwark against by committing itself to progressive trade, diversity, immigration, environmental protection, gender equality and liberty.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was thanked twice on Monday for agreeing to send Canadian peacekeepers to Mali, first by the head of the Francophonie, former Canadian governor general Michaelle Jean, and then by Macron.
Canada and France have also committed themselves to defending the environment, he added.

Rohit, Lewis star in Mumbai victory
It was the first win for the Mumbai Indians this season, pushing them ahead of RCB on the IPL table after four matches. Mumbai Indians (MI ) skipper Rohit Sharma termed their last game which the hosts won by 46 runs as the flawless one.
Canada and France declared themselves to be leaders in the climate change "fight" on Monday, suggesting that President Donald Trump's decision to remove the USA from the Paris climate accord has created a leadership vacuum.
"Trudeau is risking the health of Canada's rivers and coast, the water supply and livelihoods of many indigenous people, and undermining the credibility of the Paris climate agreement, all to keep some struggling oil companies in profit", Greenpeace UK oil campaigner Sara Ayech said in a news release.
"Whether its environmental protection or freedom of expression or other things, Canada and France are well aligned".
He stressed that the results of the introduction of new trade rules agreed in the Comprehensive economic and trade agreement between Canada and the European Union (CETA), "already seen".
Trudeau ran through a laundry list of French businesses that he said stand to benefit by expanding their operations and opportunities in Canada, where he said French investment increased by 23 per cent past year.
"France and Canada today pledge to redouble their efforts and increase their co-operation", Trudeau said in French during a news conference with Macron following the ceremony.
The Canadian Prime Minister insisted that the agreement exempts the cultural industry, an essential point for France.
