Truemors
The result of this poll seems very strange to me and, as mentioned below, seems to testify to the inaccuracy of online polls rather than actual sentiment of Canadians.
Former prime minister Pierre Trudeau has ranked as the worst Canadian according to an online poll, beating out notorious killers Paul Bernardo, Karla Homolka and Clifford Olsen.Nearly 15,000 votes were cast in the poll, conducted by The Beaver, a history magazine. Chris Hannah of the punk rock group Propagandhi, who had waged a campaign to top the list, came in a close second.
"A result that perhaps speaks about the perils of online polling as it does about the love-hate relationship Canadians have had with this paradoxical prime minister, who could wear a flower in his lapel while giving critics the finger," The Beaver said on its website, acknowledging it was an "unscientific poll."
