  • SPRING 2021 1 Continued
    Canadian eview V olume 44, No. 1 It’s an interesting anecdote when a family has more than one parliamentarian, but it’s remarkable when a family has two premiers. This phenomenon has occurred not once, not twice, but three times on Prince Edward Island. The Campbell, Ghiz, and Palmer families have all produced prominent politicians who held premierships for a combined 39 years. PEI’s first political dynasty began shortly after the Island achieved responsible government. Edward Palmer was the third premier elected on PEI, serving one four- year term as a Conservative. He was elected twice but was ousted as party leader by fellow Conservative John Hamilton Gray. Edward’s son, Herbert Palmer, was appointed premier in 1911 but was defeated in a subsequent by-election after only seven months as premier. The Palmer family was the only dynasty divided by partisan lines as Edward Palmer was a devout Conservative and Herbert Palmer a dedicated Liberal. Edward Palmer Continued on page: 2 Photo: House of Commons The Canadian Parliamentary Review was founded in 1978 to inform Canadian legislators about activities of the federal, provincial and territorial branches of the Canadian Region of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and to promote the study of and interest in Canadian parliamentary institutions.
