Some sample questions from this category:

* Nicknamed the Pacific Scandal, charges of corruption in awarding the contract for a transcontinental railroad caused this prime minister to resign in 1873.
* In 1992 this prime minister-to-be then Justice Minister caused quite a stir by posing bare-shouldered in a judge's robe for a Barbara Woodley photograph.
* This Prime Minister might give Jesse 'The Body' Ventura a tussle. He battled with a protester, help thwart a robbery attempt in his home and was smooshed in the face with a pie.
* This Prime Minister was forced to resign in 1926, over a scandal discovered in the customs department of his administration, and a committee studying the evidence handed in a critical report. Later he was re-elected. Who is he?
* This Prime Minister had a mutiny on his hands when 7 of his ministers resigned on him over his handling of the Manitoba school crisis (public funding for religious schools). Soon after he resigned himself in 1896 to save face. Who was he?
