Well Im not a big fan of this appointment either, but he is a lifelong PC who is from Montreal, an area that needs some representation in the Cabinet since they went completely Non-Con in the elections.

I hope there really is Senate reform as this just illustrates how much its goofy. Until that happens though, it will be done as it always has....this is example one of what will be plenty.
