Best Canadian Prime Ministers
The Top Ten
Stephen Joseph Harper is a Canadian politician and member of Parliament who served as the 22nd prime minister of Canada, from February 6, 2006 to November 4, 2015. He was the first prime minister to come from the modern Conservative Party of Canada, which was formed by a merger of the Progressive Conservative ...read more. During the financial crisis of 2008, he keep Canada going. Respected among the world leaders. Never did crazy stuff to embarrass us around the world. He sat at the big table where as Trudeau sat at the kids table.
The media will say a lot about this man; especially considering the primary focus of these elections were to get him out of office by the Liberals and NDP party. The greatest Prime Minister of all time? Maybe not. But certainly one of the best. Trudeau being number one is just not right. He was a charismatic guy, but didn't do as much as people make it out to be. Pearson, Laurier, Harper, and King. Those are the great Prime Ministers of Canada. Back to Harper, a man who invested in the people and believed in the achievement of greatness. While his environmental policies weren't anything to prance about, his foreign policies were one of the best Canada has ever seen. The economy was managed well under Harper. He couldn't control oil prices and the recession which had an effect as he took and managed parliament. He managed to have very low unemployment levels for the general period of time which he took office. Overall, while he may not have been the best in every regard, Harper was a ...more
He brought Canada out of debt, only for Trudeau to bring us back in!
Steered a nation through the Great Recession. Canada is the ONLY G8 country not to have suffered the effects of the global financial crisis, because of Harper's brilliant use of budgetary deficit when required - in times of NEED! In good years, we should have balanced budgets or surpluses to live within our means, unlike Justin and Pierre Trudeau, silver spoon Socialists who buried this country in debt to carry out their Socialist policies...all on the backs of working Canadians! No wonder they were best friends with Fidel Castro!
He is the worst Canadian Prime Minister - Who Likes Racist Colonizers who Created the Villainous Indian act. He is even worse then Bowell or Harper. MacDonald is a Racist Looser!
Oh please cut the crap. Macdonald was a good President and he did great things for this country. As far as the Indian act goes, I agree that it was horrible, but that's just how people's minds worked back then and there's nothing we can do now except help the remaining natives to have better life conditions. Apologizing to them and putting the blame on others won't help them.
Pierre Trudeau should be near the bottom of this list, he was driving Canadians to a entire generation of debt
Was part of founding Canada was behind the first national park and more!
Biult the railroad to allow anyone to freely come to the country
Laurier was the greatest Prime Minister because he brought the most personal liberty, economic success, lots of pride in Canada, and was the longest continuously serving PM.
Also, it is worth mentioning the inclusion of Alberta and Saskatchewan into Canada in his day.
Joseph Philippe Pierre Yves Elliott Trudeau , often referred to by the initials PET, was a Canadian politician who served as the 15th prime minister of Canada. He was a great prime minister. His son is hopefully following his steps. May he Rest In Peace
Far from being the best Prime Minister. The bad decisions he has made far outweigh the good ones.
TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDEAU! He kicked ass so much that, where I come from, his name is synonymous with extreme success. 'Dude, I can't believe you just jumped over 86 buses on your BMX! ' 'I know, I totally Trudeaued it'
Pierre tried to kill the west. Just like his moron son is trying to do. NO respect for this man and he wrecked the country's nationality
Longest serving, retired or died in office, I can't remember.
He led Canada through WWII!
His additions to aid people in the middle class is arguably one of the greatest among all of these people. He should be higher.
He did tons for not only Canada but much of the rest of the world as well. He was respectable in many of his acts.
Healthcare, pensions, everything that improves the lives of ordinary citizens.
He introduced universal health care, student loans, the Canada Pension Plan, the Order of Canada, the Maple Leaf flag and helped create legal equality for women. His Liberal government also unified Canada's armed forces.Pearson convened the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Bi-culturalism, and he kept Canada out of the Vietnam War.
The only modern PM to pay down the debt, was more fiscally Conservative than the Conservatives. Gave a lifetime of service to Canada and its people. Came from humble beginnings. Very knowledgeable man. Was not a tax and spend Liberal. Must be very disappointed in the present Liberal PM.
He refused Canada to be in war with Iraq and Syria.
He did many good things he should be at the second
He is awesome!
A man of unshakeable principles. He detested patronage so much that he had a secret staircase that led directly from his office in the West Block to the outside to avoid those seeking lucrative government contracts in exchange for party contributions. He was the first 'working-class' prime minister, a stonemason who led from a strong, moral base. We need more like him! Unfortunately, despite his accomplishments which are still in place today, he is a mere footnote in Canadian history.
No corruption, honest, straight-shooting PM, who initiated the secret ballot (privacy); founded the Royal Military College; created the Supreme Court of Canada and created the office of Auditor General."
Justin Pierre James Trudeau PC MP (born on Christmas Day, December 25, 1971) is a Canadian politician who is the 23rd Prime Minister of Canada (assumed office November 4, 2015). He is the leader of the Liberal Party and the second-youngest Canadian prime minister after Joe Clark. His father, Pierre ...read more. Trudeau is the worst Prime Minister, even right after his stupid Father. He's arrogant, incompetent and weak for all I know. He's selling his soul thanks to mass immigration which kills Canada's Labor market. Trudeau is just an ordinary man who makes a fool of himself every time he visits countries. When you see him in the G20 summit, he is ignored and bewildered by all the other leaders because of his incompetence. He thinks migrants should deserve more benefits despite the fact that Canada should serve the citizens first. He tries so hard to be the angel of the globe but the picture isn't there. I hate him and even China, Saudi Arabia and the Philippines deteriorated relations with Canada over Arresting Chinese nationals from Huawei, Criticised the Saudi Government (which was fair) but destroyed diplomacy and transporting National Waste to third world countries like the Philippines despite the fact Filipinos make up most of Canada's Asian population. I couldn't trash talk to him ...more
He was never ready to become Prime Minister and he never should of. He put Canada further in dept than before. In many ways, he is as bad, if not worse than his father Pierre Trudeau. He looks like a complete idiot in front of other world leaders, he brings in was too many immigrants and just so many more idiotic things. I hope he isn't re-elected, because we need a good Prime Minister who knows how to run a country and who actually has a pair of balls.
The largest gain over the period was 1.1% in the third quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2017, and the largest decline was 0.5% in the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2016
Will go down as Trudeau the Worst. This confused little child should not be in politics. Anyone who supports him has to be involved in some of the illegal schemes that he and his liberal government are in. No other PM or federal party has been investigated by the Ethics committee more than Trudeau the Worst and his party. They also blame everything on the Harper government cause they are cowards and cannot admit to there own incompetence.

The Contenders
Had to deal with the damage after WWII, the beginning of the cold war and the Korean war. He also brought Canada economy back and helped in the joining Newfoundland to the country
He is my uncle
Kept the auto business alive in Canada turned the economy up and now we are starting to go backwards
thanks to Trudeau
Lasted a few months. Not really that great
People back in the day did not understand his train of thought. He was more for Canada as a whole. He had ethics, morals, and a love for the country. He was ahead of the times in mind set. Today we have a real a Hole who is giving the country away to individuals who want to change the laws of the land. Here we see that they are getting it, at the tax payers expense. He obviously is on his own drug plan that Margret Trudeau was on, (she had the weed delivered to her door, accepted by the police at the front door, whereby for all the rest of Canada it was illegal to have even a smidgen). The whole family is on Drugs.
He did make gay marriage legally in 2005. That's something to be proud of Canada.
Yes... but how long did she hold office for?
She is the worst she lead failiure to her party. such a shame to canada murlouney should have stayed for those 6 months
Showed all those guys out there that women can hold office as well.
There was a prime minister named William Mackenzie - HerbiQuintus II
There was no prime minister named William Mackenzie
Bennett Buggies were so the thing back in ye olde days
