Bob Rae's first Minster of Consumer and Commercial
Relations Peter Kormos was quickly tossed out of cabinet after he posed for
the Toronto Sun as a Sunshine Boy. The Sunshine Boy was the male
counter part to the daily Page Three feature on anatomically elite females
in the GTA who all seemed to share the same common interest of
"kicking back and relaxing on weekends".
Interestingly enough, Kormos was about to launch a
campaign to get beer companies to clean up their advertising act. Kormos
felt that beer companies used too many bikini-clad women in exploitive
ways. Yet, here he was, seemingly supporting that sort of thing. Who knew
only a few years later Justice Minister Kim Campbell would pose for a more revealing photo and
then become Canada's fist female Prime Minister.
