At the time of this writing, the SNC-Lavalin scandal is looking a lot like a sinkhole for the Trudeau Liberal federal government. As this column is being put together, two women cabinet ministers have resigned, namely, Jody Wilson-Reybould and Jane Phillpott. I mention they are women cabinet ministers, as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made such a special mention of having a large number of women in his cabinet. At the get-go, that was a mistake. Appointing them was not the mistake, but to point out that they were women was. As soon as a politician gets into quota politics, it is assumed that the quota is the qualification and not the skill-set the appointee may have. Trudeau was willing to boast that he appointed women, so now that he is losing women cabinet ministers, he can wear equal amounts of shame upon their departure.
