Stephen Harper didn’t do anything at all before entering politics, did he?
Except get a Masters degree in Economics but I guess we won't talk about that.
We can talk about it, sure.

Justin Trudeau has a B.A. and a B.Ed. Christina Freeland has a Masters degree. Carolyn Bennet is a doctor. Dominic Leblanc has a Masters degree in laws from Harvard Law School. Jean-Yvette Duckos has a Ph.D in economics from the LSE and was president-elect of the Canadian Exonomics Association. Marc Garneau has a Ph.D in electrical engineering. Marie-Claude Bibeau has a degree in economics. Melanie Joly has a law degree and a masters in law. I’m not even a quarter of the way down the list. What’s your point?

So a bunch of people with paper degrees and no experience put in roles not suited to the paper degrees. The incompetence in the government is making sense now.

He definitely is not as in touch with his black side as Trudeau tries to be.

If I've learned anything in life, it's that degrees mean very little and many with Masters or Doctorates think they are lot smarter than they are. All it proves is they were able to sit in school for an extra 6-10 years. Wow.

I'm going to guess you don't have any kind of degree, if you think that a degree in something specific has any relevance to being a federal minister.

Justin Trudeau didn't accomplish much before becoming a politician. Fine. Nor did Stephen Harper. Stephen Harper has a degree. Fine, so does Justin Trudeau.

Stop with the "Liberals aren't qualified" trope. You don't like their politics, fine, we get that. But they got elected. Your turn to try again, next time.

I have a B.A and In no way would that qualify me out of school to be a PM after teaching a drama class. Its his image and last name that made him PM, not his intellect or qualifications. He is just about as corrupt as they come though, so he fits in perfectly.

Can you enumerate in what way Stephen Harper was better qualified? According to Wikipedia, it would be correct to say he worked as a mail room clerk before entering politics.

He did a lot before being the PM. Unlike Trudeau. And I'm not saying Harper was great or anything. But I am saying Trudeau is a trust fund baby with no experience or skill, only corruption.

You should join the hiring board at AC.

GATRKGA, I know you’ve been PFOd before, no need to demonize the hiring board at AC. You might find a clean slate at Jazz.

Many quality people get PFOd and likewise, some idiots make it through...all professions and companies.

Lots of pilots have been hired at AC in the last many years without a degree. Myself included.

Probably got PFO'd for another reason.
