text: Well, they picked the best and brightest in the first round.
  
  These replacements show that they are now scraping the bottom of the tank.
  It's difficult to place this cabinet in the perspective of past federal cabinets.
  
  That's because other than Goodale and MaCallum( now exiting stage left ) there are no persons of stature in this Govt.
  
  it's simply unbelievable that , at our critical crossroads as a nation , we are being led by an absent and flippant PM and a cabinet that whose collective CV would not be capable of running a Tim Hortons outlet.
  
  With Canadian households being ploughed under by debt and ever increasing tax increases , with a rejuvenated US political system that threatens to steamroll our close trading relationship ( which will further deteriorate with the PM snubbing Trumps inauguration) and with a directionless and inexperienced cabinet, can it get any worse .
  
  Indubitably..
