Make this list of Canadian PM's come true

And then create your own, explaining how. Yes, I'm shamelessly copying the POTUS thread...

Mackenzie King: 1945-48
Lester Pearson: 1948-57
John Diefenbaker: 1957-63
Lester Pearson: 1963-69
Robert Winters: 1969-76
Joe Clark: 1976-80
John Turner: 1980-86
Brian Mulroney: 1986-1995
Jean Chretien: 1995-2003
Paul Martin: 2003-2007
Stephen Harper: 2007-2020 (I wish)

Pearson was King's first choice as successor in OTL. King initially wanted to run in 1949 for a seventh term at the age of 74 in order to welcome Newfoundland, but the party dug in and he retired.
Diefenbaker: Same as OTL.
Pearson hangs on until 1963, wins a majority in 1966 and hands over to Winters in 1969- he finished second to Trudeau in '68 in OTL and disappeared from memory.
Joe Clark: Same as OTL
John Turner: Wins leadership after Winters' retirement in 1977.
Brian Mulroney: Wins in 1985 convention, enacts FTA in '88. Wins minority in 1993 and defeated by Chretien, who won in 1990.
Martin: As per OTL, except surrenders to Layton's blackmail in '05.
Harper: Wins in '07 as PC Leader, wins majority in 2009.
 
Ya got little love for P.E.T, that's for sure. And believe me, Harper ain't gonna last to 2020. As soon as the Libs get their crap together, Harper had better start shifting gears on his policies - and pronto.

And I don't think you'll be able to erase Trudeau altogether. The 1968 Liberals were suffering from a leadership deficit, and Winters has nothing on Trudeau with regards to charisma. Unless you manage to get Trudeau killed or sent to jail or something, he's gonna be in the picture.

And with him gone, how do you get Chretien into this? He rode Trudeau's coattails his entire career and became Liberal leader effectively on the fact that he was Pierre's right hand man.
