Thank you Little Linda! After further research, that scandalous photo I referred to was of Kim Campbell, QC. Seems quite tame today.
Ah yes. Kim Campbell was such a tiny blip on the Canadian political screen that I’d completely forgotten about that. My recollection from that time is that Campbell was an accomplished woman, but she was sacrificed. People were very angry at PM Mulroney for many reasons and he resigned leaving behind a political party in shambles. There was no chance that Kim Campbell could resurrect the Conservatives from the mess Mulroney left behind.
