So In Canada we know so much about the great American presidents...
FDR, Lincoln, George Washington and such
and bad ones like
Bush and Nixion
I was wondering its time we reflect on our own leaders for once and lets share our results.
Best PM's
-Macdonald (sure he came to Parliament drunk but he founded our nation)
-Laurier (He did not do much, but his stature and his reputation is unsurpassed)
-King (sure he talked to ghosts in his closet but he led us over 22 years)
-Pearson (He and Trudeau radically changed Canada)
- Bordon (Lead us through the great war)
The best: Laurier
Worst PM's
- Brian Mulroney (Sure he did some great things, but when he dies it won't be the story of the year, like when Trudeau died and his personality )
- Paul Martin (utter disappointment after being one of the best Finance minister we ever had)
- Kim Campbell and John Turner both lead to their parties to their worst defeats ever.
- All of the them between Mackenzie King and Laurier (Tupper, Thomson Abbot, Bowell)
- Joe Clark and John Diefenbaker are the most hilarious and joked about PM's and that is not a good thing
The most Influential/Well Known
Meaning the PM who today is well known and well respected or hated. Even though he been dead, his ghost haunts us all due to his failure and reminds of a time of better leaders. A PM that is known by the generations that lived during his reign and by people today.
None other the very admired and controversial Pierre Elliot Trudeau.
When he died in 2000, he became the story of the year and even his critics payed respect to his personality and charisma. He transformed Canada radically from a white anglo-saxon dominated nation to a multicultural, multilingual nation for better or for worse. His charter of freedoms has moved Canada ahead of the world when it comes to social issues or others may say has lead to a loss of the Canadian identity.
However he devastated the economy and the federal budget but his successor made his damage look insignificant . He alienated every one west of Manitoba but his charm, his antics and personality is what makes him so well known and influential today. Trudeau easily could have been a hated or disliked man but due to the fact we have had such boring, lackluster leaders after him further enhanced his image.
What say you????
