Canada's modern energy and economic prosperity has come, not from Francophones, who were mired in economic decline throughout the ponderous linguistic battle, but from immigrants, in particular from Asia. 

Pandering rigidly to the parochial machinations of one province is wasting the considerable talents of the Canadian population. As we see in Trudeau, by only accepting French speakers as candidates, you can end up with somebody who is a lightweight. 

If anything, an Asian Canadian should be the new leader and this would bond us to the fastest growing part of the world.
