Monarchs:
Elizabeth II Windsor (94-98, 04-13)
Canadas head of state, but she doesn't have any real power.
Prime Minister/President
Jean Chretien: 94-98
Great prime minister, and despite being a liberal, he was truly a conservative. Under his rule we saw the largest reduction in government spending in history. He slashed government spending by 20% in his first year, and posted balanced budgets and surpluses every year since. He also destroyed the liberal party during an attempt to prevent Paul Martin from becoming Prime Minister, which has made things much easier for my man Steven Harper.
Benjamin Mkapa: 98-04
I had no interest in politics when I was 9, and have no desire to learn anything about politics in Tanzania, so I can't tell you much about him.
Paul Martin: 04-06
Briefly head of government, served in a minority so not much happened. He continued the streak of surpluses for Canada's government.
Steven Harper: 06-13
Current head of government, and recent won a majority government. He ended Canada's streak of surpluses, when he enacted bailouts and tax cuts in 2008. He was won of our better prime ministers, though Chretien was far better.
He has been rather controversial has he is increasingly succeeding in taking steps to form a dictatorship, with a brief exception in 2012 when the party almost went to civil war over abortions, he has had strict and safe control over the party. Half the members of the senate are firmly in his pocket and will vote whatever he wants them to vote. He performs everything in secret, and has had the occasional scandal. In 2011 he won a majority government which means he now has almost absolute power in Canada.
Premier:
Bob Rae: 94-95
Terrible and socialist. Ontario is a flaming red province, that has only once in the last 60 years gone blue in a federal election. However Rob Rae was such a left wing failure, it ushered in an uber conservative like Mike Harris at the end of his first term.
Mike Harris: 95-98
Most controversial premier ever. Everyone either loves him or hates him. He absolutely slaughtered public education in Ontario, and was a flaming conservative. I personally like what I have heard about him, but to be honest I don't know that much, beyond what he did to public education in Ontario.
Dalton McGuinty: 04-13
I hated the man. His worst accomplishment was that he doubled Ontario's debt. Ontarios debt is only 100 billion lower then the Federal governments debt and her deficit is higher. Ontario may be our biggest province, but its only 1/4 of Canada's population. He also raised minimum wage and implemented the HST, two policies that I don't approve of.
Kathleen Wynne: 13
The first openly gay lesbian ever elected to public office in Canada. She became our premier 2 months ago, so there isn't much I can say.
Overall I would have to say:
Best Premier: Harris
Worst Premier: Rae
Best Prime Minister: Jean Chretien
Worst Prime Minister: Steven Harper
This was a tough category, not because there were so many bad choices, but because I only had 2 to chose from, Harper and Martin, and I am fans of both Harper and Martin. I'm going to put Harper down as worse because of many of the corruption scandals of the last 3 years, but it doesn't mean I don't like Harper. Canada has had a good run of Prime Ministers over the last 20 years, and I hope it continues into the foreseeable future.
