Introduction
Sir John A. Macdonald took office as our first prime minister on July
1, 1867. He is remembered for being a "nation builder," supporting
a transcontinental railway, and his strong belief in nationalism. Since
then, each prime minister has added his or her unique perspectives and
abilities to the development of our country. This activity raises the
questions, "What does it take to be a great prime minister?"
"Which prime minister achieved greatness?" and "What
qualities made him or her great?"
