As Trump continues to name [okay, in my opinion] inappropriate and incompetent people to his cabinet, my worries are only growing by leaps and bounds. How can he appoint a Secretary of Education who has no training or experience in education? How can he appoint to head up the EPA someone who doesn't believe in climate change? It's incredible.
I ran across this contrast on Facebook. The Canadian cabinet:
Sendhil Naathan
Minister of Health is a doctor.
Minister of Transport is an astronaut.
Minister of National Defense is a Sikh Veteran.
Minister of Youth is under the age of 45.
Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food is a former farmer.
Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness was a Scout.
Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development was a financial analyst.
Minister of Finance is a successful businessman.
Minister of Justice was a crown prosecutor and is a First Nations leader.
Minister of Sport, and Persons with Disabilities is a visually impaired Paralympian.
Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, and Canadian Coastguard is Inuit.
Minister of Science is a medical geographer with a PhD.
New titles include
Minister of Immigration, Citizenship and Refugees was an Immigration critic.
There are scientists in the cabinet, and it is made up of 50% women.

This would make so much more sense for the U.S. as well. Maybe even with a Republican-dominated Congress, some of Trump's appointments will be challenged.
