Original title: The Mark Carney era begins with prime minister and new cabinet sworn in today

I don't know if it violates rules that I modified the title from the article, I've seen a lot of questions about when Carney becomes PM and my goal with this post is to increase awareness there.

I'll be watching or listening on CBC today while working.

I’m certainly not fussed over a disparity of few seats; I do get fussed when it’s a blatant sausage fest - there’s more than few capable women in Parliament to choose from, and the incompetent women aren’t more incompetent than their incompetent male peers, so when it’s nothing but men named to cabinet positions except a few token women in appropriately “feminine” roles, I do get suspicious about their overall feelings on women in general.

Yeah, as long as it’s like 40+ plus I’m fine either way

Exact 50/50 is nice but to get it you have to make a bunch more trade off decisions.
