Comment by Justin Trudeau
Former Prime Minister of Canada (2015–2025); former leader of the Liberal Party
We will probably in the coming years end up with a handful of trillionaires—that is OK in a sense that we need to aspire to something. But if we suddenly have 100 trillionaires or 1,000 trillionaires, something will be fundamentally wrong with the world—and everyone will be right in saying 'this system doesn't work.'AI Verified source (2026)

Verified: the Fortune article dated April 28, 2026 contains the exact two-sentence quote and attributes it to Justin Trudeau, stating he said it to CNBC the prior week. A CNBC International LinkedIn post about the same CONVERGE LIVE interview independently matches the substance and attribution.

Verified via web search. Fortune blocks WebFetch (403), but the article ('Justin Trudeau warns AI boom could create hundreds of trillionaires...') is confirmed via search and multiple mirrors (MSN, Yahoo Finance, Mediazone). The quoted passage matches verbatim. Author attribution is correct - Trudeau is former PM of Canada. Vote 'for' on 'The economic gains from frontier AI should be shared with every person on Earth' aligns: Trudeau warns that extreme wealth concentration from AI would mean 'the system doesn't work' - implicitly endorsing broader sharing of AI gains. Year 2026 is current.
