I confess that I'm a little confused as to why Charles Stewart, a relatively minor Alberta political figure (well, major in that he was Premier, but minor in that he was a Premier that almost nobody had ever heard of) graces this stub template when we have suitable images of much more significant Premiers such as Alexander Rutherford, John E. Brownlee, William Aberhart, Ernest Manning, and Ed Stelmach (for those fans of recentism). What do people think about changing the image? Sarcasticidealist (talk) 14:13, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

At the time, there were very few good premier pictures avaliable, and this is still true. I think Manning would be a excellent choice since he was the longest serving premier, and also a senator. But the article "Ernest Manning" doesn't even have a picture in it!!! --Kevlar (talk • contribs) 20:56, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Because I haven't gotten to that article yet (I'm early in the process of trying to get the Premiers of Alberta up to featured topic). There are some pictures of him on Commons, though - this one's not bad. Should we give it a shot? Sarcasticidealist (talk) 21:46, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
