Def have to disagree. Seen enough social engineering over the last couple of decades to witness eventual public backlash. Be it the provincial NDP guvmint's union pay scales and other gender requirements on non-union provincial highway projects during the 1990's or its female/transgender requirements for replacement candidates of existing male NDP MLA candidates.
Or the Liberal's carbon tax or the HST.
I can go on and on and on. At the end of the day, public opinion eventually turns again same.
