I more or less agree with this list except that I'd put Sir John in first place and switch Chretien with St. Laurent.

Since it was a survey my guess would be that most people answered on the PM's notoriety rather than ability, so I don't put much stock in the rankings.

Actually, it was a survey of 117 historians, political scientists, economists and other academics in relevant fields. It's definitely not based on "notoriety".

Sir John A. MacDonald should be first, agreed. But Harper should be above both Mulroney and Diefenbaker for sure.

Why is Kim Campbell on that list??? She was barely a blip in the top job, and didn't really do much.

If it was a poll of WORST PM's then it's Trudeau for No. 1

My guess if that Sir John A is probably second because of the Pacific scandal.

There's no way that he could knock Harper and Mulroney out of #1 and #2 for worst.

Spoken like a true liberal.
Trudeau was a clown.
