BTW, the prime minister in question is Sir Wilfred Laurier. He governed from 1896-1911 and was noteworthy for being Canada's first French Canadian prime minister. He was a free trader and a brilliant compromiser. He saw Canada through the Boer War and did his utmost to reconcile the differences between French and English Canada.
