PROBLEM: The prime minister of France  Manuel Valls   said fighting the appeal of âdeadlyâ doctrines was the greatest challenge the country faced in more than 70 years.  He  said there had to be a âgeneral mobilisationâ of all sectors of society to fight the problem following the terrorist attacks in Paris last year.
âRadicalisation and terrorism are linked. We are faced with a stubborn phenomenon that has widely spread through society and which threatens it because it could expand massively â  Valls  said.
The strategic document that focuses on detection and prevention of radicalisation was unveiled by  Valls  in the presence of several ministers in Franceâs socialist government including those responsible for justice  defence  education  health  culture  youth and sports.

The deradicalisation centres will house young people who âcould have repented and who we will test the sincerity and willingness to be reintegrated back into society for the long termâ   Valls  said.
 He  said the aim of the centres would be to stem the flow of young people to Syria and Iraq and begin the process of deradicalising them.
At least half of the new centres will hold those deemed by a judge to be at risk of radicalisation but cannot be placed in detention   Valls  added.

SOLUTION: Manuel Valls

PROBLEM: Image copyright Getty Images Image caption  Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau  departs a press availability at the Canadian Embassy in Washington
In 2017   Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau  learned a lesson about the power of social media.
 Trudeau 's January tweet "isn't necessarily the sentiment being held by a lot of Canadians".
 Mr Trudeau  ended 2017 in an ethics quagmire partly of  his  own making.
Meanwhile   Trudeau 's finance minister  Bill Morneau  is struggling with his own ethics troubles.
A mid-December poll by the Angus Reid Institute indicated that for the first time since his election   Trudeau 's approval ratings had dropped below 50%.
 Trudeau 's ratings are still strong for a politician  but Kurl says there is "perhaps a little bit less adoration and a little bit more exasperation with the prime minister".
As the two rival leaders find their feet - and if  Trudeau  and  his  ministers keep handing them easy ammunition - 2018 could also prove a rough ride.

SOLUTION:
Justin Trudeau
