Whoa, too many women in political leadership positions and why, why, the whole place could just blow up.
Thought it was amusing today to see so many comments to my story on Olivia Chow and the NDP leadership saying, to paraphrase, "Hey, wait a minute, Kim Campbell was already PM in 1993." Yup she was there for a few months so I suppose that's the quota.
Really folks?
I don't know if Olivia Chow will run for the job which, barring events, could include the Official Opposition leadership and - the reason today's negative shots on women at the top - a shot at the position of PM in the next election.
There was a buzz about Chow all week, in the lines at City Hall, outside Roy Thomson Hall, and the Star likes to get stories people are talking about out there.
I expected a wide diversity of opinion. But we're still on the "too many women" for PM theme?
Sheesh.
