Colour me silly, but this sure looks and sounds highly political to me. Please note the party affiliation of each Premier ranked therein which will be inserted by me, Im certain it was an error on this apolitical (ahem) , highly objective Charitys part to omit that information which might be construed as bias. The Fraser Institute has published a report that says the rankings are intended to help Canadians hold politicians to account for their fiscal policies. Premiers who fare well should be commended, while those lagging behind should use the performance of others as a model for reform, the report says. Regardless of where they ranked, all premiers, even those with high rankings, have room for improvement. The report noted that many of the current premiers are struggling with records of high government spending and debt left behind by their predecessors. Fraser ranked premiers based on how well or poorly they performed relative to their counterparts. HOW THEY RANKED Fraser Institute Rankings of 10 Current and Past Premiers (from best to worst): * 1. Kathy Dunderdale, Newfoundland * 2. Brad Wall, Saskatchewan * 3. Christie Clark, British Columbia * 4. Greg Selinger, Manitoba * 5. David Alward, New Brunswick * 6. Alison Redford, Alberta * 7.
