A deputy prime minister or vice prime minister is, in some countries, a government minister who can take the position of acting prime minister when the prime minister is temporarily absent.
 The position is often likened to that of a vice president, but is significantly different even though both positions are "number two" offices.
 The position of deputy prime minister should not be confused with the Canadian Deputy Minister of the Prime Minister of Canada, a nonpolitical civil servant position.
 Also, the Deputy Prime Minister of Canada does not act as a "number two".

The Prime Minister (Swedish: "statsminister" , literally "Minister of the State") is the head of government in Sweden.
 Before the creation of the office of a Prime Minister in 1876, Sweden did not have a head of government separate from its head of state, namely the King, in whom the executive authority was vested.
 Louis De Geer, the architect behind the new bicameral Riksdag of 1866 that replaced the centuries-old Riksdag of the Estates, became the first officeholder in 1876.
 The current Prime Minister of Sweden is Stefan Löfven, leader of the Swedish Social Democratic Party.
 Below is the list and statistics of Prime Ministers of Sweden since the creation of the office in 1876.
 The list does not include acting prime ministers, the only example to date is Östen Undén who served as acting prime minister from 6 to 11 October 1946.

 Since the mid-1980s, Singapore has usually had two Deputy Prime Ministers at a time.
 Only Ong Teng Cheong and Tony Tan (who later became Singaporean presidents) served under more than one Prime Minister during their time as Deputy Prime Minister.
The Government of Israel (officially: Hebrew: ממשלת ישראל‎ ‎ "Memshelet Yisrael") exercises executive authority in the State of Israel.
 It consists of ministers who are chosen and led by the prime minister.
 The composition of the government must be approved by a vote of confidence in the Knesset (the Israeli parliament).
 Under Israeli law, the prime minister may dismiss members of the government, but must do so in writing, and new appointees must be approved by the Knesset.
 Most ministers lead ministries, though some are ministers without portfolio.
 Most ministers are members of the Knesset, though only the Prime Minister and the "designated acting prime minister" are required to be Knesset members.
 Some ministers are also called deputy and vice prime ministers.
 Unlike the designated acting prime minister, these roles have no statutory meanings.
 The government operates in accordance with the Basic Law.
 It meets on Sundays weekly in Jerusalem.
 There may be additional meetings if circumstances require it.
 The prime minister convenes these meetings.

 He was the 14th Prime Minister of Canada from 22 April 1963 to 20 April 1968, as the head of two back-to-back Liberal minority governments following elections in 1963 and 1965.
An acting prime minister is a cabinet member (often in Westminster system countries) who is serving in the role of prime minister, whilst the individual who normally holds the position is unable to do so.
 The role is often performed by the deputy prime minister (where that position exists), or by another senior minister.
 The office is commonly used when the prime minister is absent from the territory of that nation, or when the prime minister is in ill health.
Located on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, the Centennial Flame (French: "Flamme du centenaire" ) commemorates Canada’s 100th anniversary as a Confederation.
 The Flame was first lit as the climax of the centennial celebrations of January 1, 1967, in the presence of then Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson.
 He was joined on the hill by leader of the Opposition and former Prime Minister, John Diefenbaker, and Secretary of State, who was in charge of the Centennial, Judy LaMarsh as well as thousands of onlookers.
 The Flame is fuelled by natural gas and surrounded by a fountain whose ledge contains the shields of 12 of Canada’s provinces and territories—Nunavut is absent as it was not created until 1999.
