In second place was Terry Fox, the inspirational hero who tried to walk across Canada after losing a leg to cancer, while hockey great Wayne Gretzky was the top choice of living Canadians. The poll, conducted by Ekos Research Associates, asked more than 3,000 Canadians to name their choice for top honours. Trudeau was the resounding favourite at 32 per cent, with Fox coming a distant second at six per cent and Gretzky placing third with four per cent. Fourth-place honours were shared by former prime minister Lester B. Pearson, who is viewed as the father of Canadian peacekeeping, and Rene Levesque, who led the separatist Parti Quebecois to its first electoral victory. Both men were named by three per cent of respondents. Former prime ministers William Mackenzie King, Wilfrid Laurier, John Diefenbaker and Brian Mulroney were also named in the survey, but received less than two per cent of the votes.

Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Spouses of the Prime Ministers of Canada Unlike in the United States , the wife of the Prime Minister of Canada does not have a prominent role. Although some commentators have tried to style prime minister's wives as "First Lady of Canada," this title is not officially recognized. Use of the term is likely based more on the pervasive influence of American media than on any historical notions of a defined public role for the Prime Minister's spouse. While the American First Lady has a number responsibilities and usually her own staff, the same is not true of the wife of the Prime Minister . This is partially a reflection of the much smaller role of the personal lives of politicians in Canadian media and the fact that the Canadian PM is not the head of state (see also Canadian Monarchy Governor General of Canada Some Prime Ministers' wives have attracted a great deal of attention, however. Margaret Trudeau , who Pierre Trudeau married while in office, became a notable celebrity in her own right, especially during and after the couple's divorce. Maureen McTeer , in turn, attracted controversy when she became the first spouse of a Prime Minister to retain her own surname after marriage.

Remember: the words " as though it had received"... that's unconstitutional. And, the bastards went a wee bit further... It took just fifteen minutes to pass a bill in THEIR FAVOR... while anything of any importance to the Canadian general population would take years... and, even then it would get so watered down that it wouldn't make a fricken bit of difference to anyone anyway...
