Blue eyes.

As do Chretien, Turner and Kim Campbell

If you want to be PM, kids. Have blue eyes.

======

What percentage of this Trudeau Jnr federal cabinet has blue eyes? And does this represent the percentage of the general Canadian population that has blue eyes?

Liberals. Winners.

It is not women who suffer from misrepresentation, it is brown-eyed people. Blue-eyed people succeed in life. Brown-eyed people lose.

Trudeau Jnr should have ensured that his federal cabinet included the true sampling of the eye colour of the Canadian population.

Dammit, so Mulcair just needed some coloured contacts?!? And everyone said it was the niqab?

It was the creepy smile. Blue eyes would have made it worse.

Unlimited economic growth has the marvelous quality of stilling discontent while preserving privilege, a fact that has not gone unnoticed among liberal economists.

Jack Layton had blue eyes.

Dammit again, you're right!!!

I just don't want to believe that there's a blue eye privilege in this world. I think you're just a SJW, August.

What about the fact that most of our PMs are primary catholic white males from montreal?

Stephen Harper and Kim Campbell were not Catholic nor from Montreal - but both had blue eyes.

=====

Jean Charest once had a Quebec cabinet that was 50/50 women/men, following some Scandinavanian idea, and Trudeau Jnr seems to have imitated Charest.

I stand by my request: does this federal Cabinet represent the eye colour of all Canadians?

Unlike many others in Quebec today, it seems to me that eye colour - not gender - is a true indicator of power.

And I stand by my opinion that Trudeau Jnr is 1970s Scandinavian furniture -his Dad's ideas in his mother's body. Once useful and stylish but now past date.

There are few exceptions to the catholic white males from montreal.

My late parents, dad a brown, mom had blue or hazel and the kids had different shade of green, my spouse has blue, so one of my kids has blue and the other green. What's yours? Are green eyes rare?

Five of the 31 members of the Trudeau cabinet are left handed. That is about 16%.

In Canada, about 10% of people are left handed. Therefore left handers have a better chance of getting into the Canadian feredal cabinet than are right handers.

Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.

It is not only among Canadians that left-handed people are about 10%. It is among women/men, in Japan, in Africa and wherever else.

IMHO, someone (Elton John?) should tell Vladimir Putin that about 10% of Russians are left-handed.

As to blue eyes, it's a different story. People with blue eyes (like left-handed people) are a minority. So, maybe they need affirmative action, positive discrimination or whatever the current politically correct term is.

[sarcasm alert]I think some blue-eyed people should be forced to wear brown contact lens, or maybe we should force news agencies to photoshop blue-eyed people to make them look brown-eyed.[/sarcasm]

BTW, Pauline Marois and Rene Levesque had remarkable blue eyes.
