* Game 4, Round 4 - Canadiana History - Past Provincial Premiers
Please see the 2-page handout:
http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/04-04/premier.pdf
We will provide you with a picture number, and you name the past
premier of one of the 10 provinces.
Nobody tried these, so this round never happened. Scores for this
game will now be based on your best 5 out of 7 rounds.
The first 5 were premiers of provinces from Ontario westward:
1. #1.
Peter Lougheed (PC, Alberta, 1971-85).
2. #4.
Tommy Douglas (CCF, Saskatchewan, 1944-61; later federal NDP leader,
1961-71).
3. #5.

4. #10.
John Robarts (PC, Ontario, 1961-71).
5. #18.

And the other 5 were premiers of provinces from Quebec eastward:

1967-76).

Here are the decoys in rot13. If you like, give the picture numbers
for fun, but for no points.

now is known simply as "NCIS".

"Mary Tyler Moore Show". 4 for Dan Blum and Joshua.
