Now see, should I view this as PP being "woke" because he chose 2 LGBT MPs and a person of colour for the the Conservative caucus? Did he do that because theyre the best for the jobs or because he's looking to meet a diversity quota?

I'm being rhetorical of course. In reality, I think he's doing what every other organizations does in that he's hoping to gain support for the Conservative Party from a brand range of people across Canadian society. And I don't really understand why that would be a problem for anyone.

I would find it absolutely hilarious if he starts to lose support due to this because, like O’Toole, he wasn’t “conservative” enough.
