I have been lucky enough to be eliminated from jury duty for most of my adult life, but I have extensive experience on the other side of the jury box.

If it's similar to the U.S. judicial process, the main things that would get you eliminated by the prosecution or defense would be extreme views on either end of the political spectrum(conservative and liberal). For example, if you were extremely religious and an eye for an eye kind of guy, then the defense may decide to toss you. In our system, there are general guidelines that would preclude certain professions or religious affiliations and the each side(defense and prosecution) would have a limited amount of passes they could eliminate a juror for whatever reason they choose.

There are actual professional jury consultants that come in to assist the lawyers in the choosing of juries based on social, political, and economic factors. It is a fairly stressful and important part of the process of criminal and civil trials for us.

There is the possibility that you may be chosen for a civil issue as opposed to a criminal one. Good luck and let us know how it goes when it come back around.
