And here's the Honourable Minister for Democratic Institutions, who has no particular knowledge of Canadian constitutional law, whose most important executive position was running a window washing franchise, but who did fit enough of the diversity criteria to land a Cabinet post whose primary function is to change the Canadian electoral system into one which will guarantee Liberal government forever.

The hell she didn't know where she was born.

She made a cold political calculation that voters would more likely favour an Afghan refugee fleeing the Taliban against whom Canada sent men to die, over an Iranian woman from the Axis of Evil led by religiously crazed nuclear bomb builders against which Canada imposed sanctions and then cut off diplomatic relations.

And she was right.

We were Afghan citizens, as we were born to Afghan parents, and under Iranian law, we would not be considered Iranian citizens despite being born in that country.

Maybe she could fake it and just say she was born in Hawaii! It worked like a charm last time....

Plus, from her gorgeous face... it’s clear that she is a bit more Han Chinese than she lets on...

Sounds like Ted Cruz’s story. “I just found out, in 2012, that I’m Canadian!”

Looks like you have a sneak in your midst, just like the sneak in our White House.

Is a Cabinet Minister in Canada similar to being one of our Congress Critters here in the USA?

If so, we have a few infilTRAITORS as well. I’ll bet you can name a few just off the top of your head! Start with MN and MI...

She was also surprised to find out that she’s also a member of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence.
