Why he might be annoying:

    He was virtually unknown when he became Prime Minister.
    The Toronto Star announced his victory by calling him, 'Joe Who?'
    He was mocked for his awkward mannerisms, with a huge head and a very skinny body.
    He was seen as a person who couldn't keep his promises when he completely changed his ideas about economic recovery.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He had come out of nowhere to beat popular Pierre Trudeau.
    He took advantage of Trudeau's pompous demeanor.
    He became Prime Minister at age 39, making him Canada's youngest Prime Minister.
    His government sheltered American embassy staff in Iran.
    He tried to reorganize the Conservative Party of Canada.
