Watching the Candian PM's Address to Parlament ...

Maybe it's just the camera angle; but, WOW ... the diversity!

8 people in the shot: 5 men/3 women, 1 Sihk, 1 Asian, age range: 30-ish to 60-ish ... and a slightly wider shot added 5 people, 4 of them women.

The Opposition SLeader's shot reflected a similar pattern: 7 people, 3 women (though a lack of ethnic/religious diversity).

The U.S. Congress can't make such a claim of diversity.
