In his memoirs, Mulroney discusses at length a proposal made by his good friend George H.W. Bush in late 1991 to have him elected SecGen as Perez de Cuellar's replacement. Mulroney didn't accept because of major domestic issues requiring attention here. Let's say that Meech is ratified in June 1990 and Mulroney retires in the fall of 1991 as he planned to do in such a scenario. Bush sends Mulroney's name to the UN and he is elected. Ramifications, results? He probably gets a second term in 1997 if he wants given that all the SC countries will not object.
