Or did anyone else notice how inappropriate the new GG, Julie Payette, looked at her installation? That hair!? She is 53 years old, yet still sports a frizz hairdo from the sixties -- grey roots and all. I don't get it?? And that male outfit? What was that all about?? She looked like the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod. The representative of our Head of State, Queen Elizabeth II, she looks like she just hitchhiked out of Woodstock.
The other misstep was her speech. Last time I checked, Canada had two official languages: French and English. She opened with "Indian" (not sure which of the 600 tribal languages she mouthed), but it was not appropriate. The rest of the time she then spoke mostly in French.
Ah, Separatism. Alive and thriving in every francophone.
Oh dear, reminded me of a dinner I attended at Rideau Hall when Michaelle Jean's French/France husband took the stage and lambasted all of us after a few pops. In French. Let's get a grip here. Wonder what poor Elizabeth thought of her representative when Payette visited Balmoral a couple of weeks ago. Yikes!
I shudder.
