I saw this posted on another car forum... is this true???

"Ya our immigration minister is from Somalia, our health minister is a 350 pound woman, the minister of sport is a wheelchair bound quadriplegic and our minister of defense wears a big purple turbin..."

In the middle--Canada's Minister of health Ginette Talor. Don't look like 350lbs to me...not even close. Born/raised in Dieppe Canada.

Minister of Sport and People with Disabilities is a quadriplegic.

Ah, the military guy, Harjit actually served in the military, and also as a police officer even earlier. Plus, it appears to me that he's Sikh (didn't read too much into it), so he actually seems pretty legit, and totally capable. So if I was Canadian, I wouldn't have a problem with him being there.

Didn't realize Minister of Sports was also in charge of disabilities, so I suppose it makes sense. But I think I'd rather see someone who was a doctor in that position (maybe he is, didn't bother to read).

Ok, so not as bad as the people on the Oldsmobile forum said, hahaha!!!

Pretty much.

You guys think politics down there is a #shitshow of comedy and entertainment, you aint seen NOTHING until you pay attention up here.

There are days and articles that leave you sitting there, head spinning, think WTF did I just hear/read/see ? HUH ?

Then the eyes start to spin. Ya would think we would get used to it, but nope. Every time ya think it cant get any stupider, they go and prove you wrong.

The quip about the Health Minister, probably refers to Alberta Provincial Health Minister, Sarah Hoffman.

Provincial, not Federal Minister.
