Original research (the whole of the overview section is an obvious example of somebody combining trivial statistics together - and whether it is routine arithmetics or not, it is clearly OR and SYNTH if Wikipedia is the only place that lists this); which, like similar examples (another), is a Trivial cross-categorisation ("age at death" and "former political office holder") which fails to cite a single source, thus mot meeting either of WP:V or WP:LISTN.

- Delete Per the nom. Fails WP:V, WP:LISTN, and with serious WP:OR issues. The related article List of prime ministers of Canada is all we need and of a far higher quality, not this redundant WP:TRIVIA regurgitation. That this article has only 2 minor citations while the other one has over 50, demonstrates just how trivial this cross-categorization of age and being a former political office holder is.

- Comment this is an odd nomination after the recent Keep at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of prime ministers of the United Kingdom by age. Nfitz (talk) 21:14, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- "Age" and "longevity" are not quite the same thing (although they're both statistical trivia, notwithstanding the fact that newspapers occasionally report on it)... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 16:22, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
