Line 25:
* Lester B. Pearson (Liberal, 1963-1968)
* Pierre Trudeau (Liberal, 1968-1979) - Brought [[Canadian Politics]] out of sobriety and into flamboyance.
* Joe Clark (Progressive Conservative, 1979-1980) - "Joe Who?" Took Canadian Politics right back into sobriety... but it didn't completely take. Lost a confidence motion on his very first budget.
* Pierre Trudeau (Liberal, 1980-1984) - This time around, repatriated the Constitution, meaning the UK could no longer overrule Canadian laws. However, the way he did that annoyed Quebec so much that a separatist movement took hold there (and has never completely gone away).
* John Turner (Liberal) - He held the title of Prime Minister for 79 days (10 days longer than Tupper), but he never lead a federal Parliament.
