It seems to me that it was Chong who was most frowned upon - presumably because he was the closest thing to a Progressive Conservative in a party dominated by Reform. If Doctoral intelligence doesn't work in politics then why is Leitch in politics? Having asked that question, I hasten to add that there are plenty of other medical doctors in both federal and provincial legislatures and they are functioning just fine. Leitch is a wing nut, that's her problem not the fact that she is a physician.
