& L 3 L y+ 3 * APL p 3 Could the next Prime Minister of Canada be a woman? Is it time? Is the second sex ready for first class honours? If it is time for a woman to be the Prime Minister could she be a black woman? Or, maybe a yellow woman? Should she be a .married woman? Or should she be single? If she is married will her husband become the Prime Ministeress? Will he walk three paces behind her? What about her children; how many children would it be acceptable for her to have? Two? Three? Ten? If she is single could she have a boy friend? Two boy friends? Or more? If single, could she have a child out of wedlock? Or two, or more? | think it's obvious she would be unacceptable if she were black or yellow or married or single or English speaking or Protestant or Catholic" or pregnant or anything. But if we could forget the peculiar way in which we insist upon looking at the other sex, what would we want? Someone like Maureen McTeer? | don't think so. She is just too much like one of the kids we see everyday, somewhat immature, naive, determined to go her own way but with no idea what way that is. ldealistic but without really knowing what her ideals 'are. doesn't quite add up. Margaret Trudeau? In someways she seems just right. Married, with children, and comfort- able in her marriage. Comfortable in diplomatic circles, but...... but...... her husband would be a problem. A pushy type. | think he'd interfere, and his politics are definitely suspect. What is the man? Socialist, communist, an egghead in the clouds thinker? And let's not forget that Margaret is such a lousy singer, terrible, terrible, terrible. What do we want in a female Prime Minister? What about appearance? | think we'll have to go with the North American ideal, a tall blonde. Okay, we should be more specific. Let's say around 5'6" to 58' and somewhere between 120 and 135 pounds; blue eyes. Looking around at the present world leaders | would guess she should be somewhat athletic. A Es No, Maureen This seems to suggest a tall blue-eyed blonde who plays quarter-back for the Argos, but, no, : PLUMBING & HEATING New Installations a Repairs - Alterations - BERT FABER PHONE 985-3734 _"Service is Our Business." 24HOUR EMERGENCY SERVICE RELIABLE | LLXXX. bs sass 'DON'S CUSTOM CONCRETE FINISHING EE TST Yr Quality Workmanship Free Basement Floors _Estimates Garage Floors Patios - Sidewalks Cg PHONE Concrete Steps <2 985-2588 FAA ARARVARNACAAAAALRARNRRNLANNNNINBNSSISSSSaAS St. Clair PAINT & WALLPAPER The Paint & Paper People MIDTOWN MALL OSHAWA, ONTARIO 576-2431 that wouldnt do because she has to be a winner. What about swimming? That would do; maybe a tall, blue-eyed blonde who once swam Lake Ontario, both ways, carrying her husband on her back. That will never do! We'd better start again. A. tall, blue-eyed blonde who swims and dives just well enough to turn us on, that's it. ' ; What about education? | guess she should be college educated. English? French? Neither, obviously. | suppose we will have to have an American. | mean, what's left? So now we have a female, tall, blue-eyed, blonde swimmer and diver who went to college and speaks English and French, but not too well...just enough to limp through a simple address but not enough to be called a French- lover. Should she be married? | think married is necessary but her husband shouldnt be too bright and he should be a bit older than she is. She should be capable of having children, but wouldn't it be better if she didn't have any? Anyway, not yet. Back to her husband again, what nationality should he be? We definitely wouldn't want hanmack.... English-Canadian, and no way could be have French-Canadian. After all, we must remember the old pillow talk. Jewish, maybe? No, that could be awkward with Israel. We wouldn't want another American cause then they'd be taking over our country. He must be Canadian, but what kind of Canadian? The problem is we have so many kinds to choose from. I've got it! He should be a Scots-Canadian. Nobody ever gets mad at the Scots except the English and they only get mad 'cause they didn't manage to be born Scottish. So what do we have now? A tall, blue-eyed, blonde, American, college-educated female who . speaks English fluently, and French limpingly, with no children but"married. Husband is a little older, not too bright, a Scotsman. Wait a minute! That's the old Hot-Water-Bottle and me; tall, blue-eyed, yes, that's us all right. | want you to know right away that I'm against women for Prime-Minister. They are just not suitable 'cause they, 'cause they, 'cause they.... well, they are women, for one thing, and I'm against Americans, too. It's all right to marry one, but | certainly wouldn't want to vote for one. No, I"m against it. 1I"m against it. Definitely, COLD WEATHER REMEDIES Windows 2 Classic - Double Hung a "320.85.
