13. How many provinces changed Premiers this year?
14. For another point, name the three new Premiers.

Jeff, at 6:14 p.m.
Good catch...you obviously were the king of multiple choice back in High School!
By
calgarygrit, at 6:20 p.m.
Very nasty of you on question two to confuse us with your powers of subliminal influence (picture of Rae and Mercer next to a question about Harper and Mercer).
By
Prairie Fire, at 6:26 p.m.
It's hardly CG's fault that Harper casts no reflection and can't be photographed - he's not the one in charge of handing out souls.
By
Reality Bites, at 6:46 p.m.
10.5/20...seriously glad this isn't going on the old transcript, as this would not have been a big GPA booster.
By
MB, at 7:01 p.m.
I got all but two. I was happy for a moment, but now I'm really depressed.
I'm taking a hiatus from political news starting immediately.

I just did my 2006 review on my blog. Yes, Calgary Grit wins Best Blog.

14. For another point, name the new Premiers.
It could have been just one.
This was really hard, but I'm glad I recognized Maxime Bernier without any difficulty.
By
Yining Su, at 11:52 p.m.
Is it cheating if I figured out #18 via mouseover?
By
The Invisible Hand, at 12:07 a.m.
invisible hand; This is politics so there really is no such thing as cheating.
By
calgarygrit, at 1:48 a.m.
Cheating?
Isn't that what Tie Domi did with Belinda?
It's not something you do on a quiz, is it?
By
Down & Out in L A, at 11:51 a.m.
13, I was so close on the Premiers, I knew Mandonald and Stelmach, and I knew the guy that beat lord had a Graham in his name. Unfortunately it was not Graham Fisher.

Q:6. What percentage of the vote did Ralph Klein get on his leadership review, prompting him to call it quits?
A: Joe Volpe.
By
daveberta, at 4:49 p.m.
I got 1, 2, 3, and then it went downhill. Man, how you guys all keep up on this stuff amazes me. I should have got Stairs. Got 6, lucky guess on 9, got 10, 11, and Mulroney.
Have seen Bernier but really did not recognize him at all. Totally blanked on Skelton.
Fun.

Zing!! Love it!
By
Jacques Beau Vert, at 10:56 p.m.
Do Rob Anders action figures actually exist? Imagine the look on a kids face when they open up that present.
But really - he has special powers of honourary citizenship denial.
By
french wedding cat, at 1:06 p.m.
Not a lot of internet these days, even less over Christmas. Have a great holiday, not sure if I'll be around the next few. You're the best, man - hope you run someday. Take care and best wishes.
By
Jacques Beau Vert, at 1:42 a.m.
Oh, and Merry Christmas Dan. I wish I'd thought of making that, it's a good one.
By
Jacques Beau Vert, at 1:47 a.m.
Great quiz! I actually feel relieved that I only got five correct (although each of the questions struck a familiar chord). I think that means that I don't actually have a life beyond politics, but could.
By
Paul, at 4:28 p.m.
That anti-Anders toymaker is engaging in false advertising. It claims that you can "push the button on his back & make his foot go in his mouth", but a close inspection of the toy reveals that there are no joints in his knees or hips, making that impossible! :)
