I wish the reform party still existed - kyanazadisgreat

I voted Harper, and I would continue if I could to vote Harper!

A true statesman and a master strategist who navigated Canada through one of the most challenging economic conditions in our history, and with a minority government for half his tenure.

This was one of the good ones, it was kinda sad to see him get replaced on nov 4 2015

2 Pierre Trudeau Pierre Trudeau 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.

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 - RampantLion

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' - ninapalmer

John Lennon once stated that " if all politicians were like Mr. Trudeau there would be world peace. absolutely amazing man and by anyone who understands is held in higher regard than most people here. - severalsomeones

Honestly, Pierre Trudeau did a lot with the Canadian Community. He deserves this spot

3 John A. Macdonald

He created Canada and the RCMP / NWMP

Pierre Trudeau should be near the bottom of this list, he was driving Canadians to a entire generation of debt - a123soup

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

4 Wilfrid Laurier

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.

5 Lester Pearson

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 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.

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.

7 Jean Chretien

He should be higher - kyanazadisgreat

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. - RampantLion

He is a stupid idiot - Maddox121

He was just number 1 yesterday.How did he drop all the way to 9? - DarkBoi-X

Very overhated Prime Minister. - owlro188

9 Alexander Mackenzie

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."

10 Robert Borden

The Contenders

11 Louis St. Laurent

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

12 Charles Tupper

Lasted a few months. Not really that great

13 Arthur Meighen
14 Brian Mulroney

Kept the auto business alive in Canada turned the economy up and now we are starting to go backwards
thanks to Trudeau

He is my uncle

15 John Diefenbaker

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.

16 Paul Martin

He did make gay marriage legally in 2005. That's something to be proud of Canada.

17 Kim Campbell

She is the worst she lead failiure to her party. such a shame to canada murlouney should have stayed for those 6 months - kyanazadisgreat

Yes... but how long did she hold office for? - PetSounds

Showed all those guys out there that women can hold office as well.
