Those statements fall outside the realm of "opinion" - and they only become fact if you have some sort of research evidence to back it up.



How about you go find me information on ANY of those countries electing Prime Ministers that were not born there. If you find FACTUAL information, I will conceed that it HAS happened. I highly DOUBT you will find it though.




Easy - the first three Prime Ministers of Canada were born in Scotland and the 6th PM was born in England. No Canadian PM until the 10th was technically born in Canada, as Canada as a soveriegn nation did not exist before 1867.

Furthermore, there is no requirement in our system of government for a Canadian Prime Minister to be born in Canada; and given the multi-cultural society that we have, I seriously doubt anyone would care where our Prime Minister was born, so long as they were the right person for the job.




Ahhh see?? Someone can do research. I bow to you Ken.
