Yes, indeed, the thought-police in action.  Canadians are witnessing first hand what a "gender-balanced" Federal cabinet is capable of.  Just what we need is to impose that same folly on Canadian business.  Should more women choose to lead businesses, more qualified women will be available to serve on corporate boards, and the best will.  Stop imposing your ideologically-derived and arbitrary criteria on private enterprises.  In their search for the best talent, sports teams broke the colour barrier for all the right reasons, so too will corporations in search of talented directors.  Fighting perceived sexism with sexism isn't the answer.
