TORONTO — Hillary Rodham Clinton remembered the Queen as a role model of resilience at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The former U.S. secretary of state took the stage at a TIFF industry conference Saturday alongside daughter Chelsea Clinton and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau, the prime minister’s wife.
Trudeau asked the Clintons what they would have discussed with the Queen in a hypothetical interview for their streaming documentary series, “Gutsy.”
The elder Clinton said she would have asked where she found “the continuing resilience” to carry out her duties every day of her 70-year reign.
She added that she admired the British monarch’s indefatigable dedication to public service.
“Gutsy,” based on the Clintons’ book “The Book of Gutsy Women,” sees the mother-daughter duo speak with some of their heroes, including Gloria Steinem, Wanda Sykes and Jane Goodall. The show is streaming on Apple TV Plus.
