People called him a “frightful old rascal,” a drunk, a liar, and a scheming thief. But then these same people also considered him to be “the father and founder of Canada.” To this day, Sir John A. Macdonald is the only Canadian prime minister to throw up in the House of Commons, resign for dishonourable behaviour, personally take up arms against invading Americans, then defend some of them in court! And that's only a small sample of the outrageous acts for which he's famous. Sir John didn't care whether people liked him or thought him a fool; what he cared most about was that his dear Canada was taking shape and growing by leaps and bounds.
