Brian Mulroney, The Right Hon. Kim Campbell and The Right Hon. Joe Clark.

CANADA'S NEXT GREAT PRIME MINISTER is based on a popular nationwide competition originated in 1995 by Frank Stronach, founder and chairman of Magna International, in his quest to search for Canada's best and brightest future leaders. It was launched to engage young Canadians in the political process and to encourage them to think about ways to improve the country.
