Linda Duncan and House of Commons

House of Commons: Now, given the chance, I get to assemble the best Cabinet I can. And I decide to put together Canada first all-woman, all-party Cabinet. It only fair. Through most of our history Canada had all male Cabinets . And the nice thing is, there is no shortage of talent right now in the House of Commons, according to Rabble. I'd keep Kerry-Lynne Findlay in National Revenue. She has a heart of gold and legal background. With consensus decision making to actually run a fair tax system, she'd be great. Minister of Foreign Affairs H l ne Laverdi re, former foreign service officer, is someone who could reverse the disastrous efforts to eliminate Canada legendary professional diplomat civil service and I could claim "last night I had the strangest dream..." It had to do with International Women Day. And suddenly the male leadership decided it had really made too big a mess of things to be able to continue in good conscience.... And....political parties vaporized at the astonishing voluntary surrendering of power.. and with no parties... somehow the House of Commons reconvened with me as Prime Minister. Justice Minister is obvious -- Francoise Boivin, whip-smart lawyer. I would beg Libby Davies not to leave so I could get her to take over Employment and Social Development and set up a new national housing programme. The Health Minister should be Dr. Carolyn Bennett, a medical doctor and former Minister of Public Health. Minister of Environment should be a scientist who has served on the - Dr. Kirsty Duncan. That other dynamo Duncan, Linda Duncan of the NDP, also has great credentials to run Environment Canada as she was once director of prosecutions there. Her expertise should be just as valuable in Natural Resources, working through a new mandate in sustainability. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
