"Ranking member of the party" is a pretty weak reason to put him in this sensitive and important position and if he's the best they have then the Conservatives in worse shape than I thought. He's not the best they have though so it's a moot point.

Your biasses are showing again. This has nothing to do with the Conservatives. The Conservatives arent the only party that does this, as I showed with McLellan. This is a function of the Canadian political system.
Hell, Jean Chretien never did anything in his life that would justify becomming the Prime Minister, and his legacy will reflect that: He did nothing of note that could be considered a benefit to Canadians, and right now has an excellent chance of being remembered as the most corrupt politician in Canadian history.
Believe me, I am well aware that the Canadian government is in need of wholesale reform. How other countries do it is immaterial. We are not other countries. Cabinet positions are handed out like Senate seats: To whoever kisses the prime ministers ass the best.
