I know we have a general interest Canada thread.

But let's use this for the election.

Canada doesn't have any political parties led by a h0ttie.  :(

I don't know, Trudeau is prettier then most other countries politicians, male or female.

He's definitely hotter than any other Canadian federal party leader.

You should probably treat Josephus opinion on the hotness of Singh vs Trudeau as a reflection of Josephus' tastes rather than some sort of universal aesthetic truth.

I am not :hug:

I am saying that since reportedly a number of people find Singh hotter than Trudeau. So Beebs should take your opinion as just that, your opinion.

QuoteI never liked long hair on men.

Which is entirely your prerogative.

I find that Singh's turban is too narrow.  I prefer a slightly fuller look for a turban, like Tim Uppal, for example.  Tim Uppal always chooses the richest of blues for his turban.  It might be my favorite turban in Canadian politics. 
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Has Trudau ever worn I turban, I wonder? And if so, what style was it?

Alas, we voted out our man with the golden turban.  It truly whirled 'bout his head like the dervishs of old.   :(

The Conservatives - if they win - will scrap the childcare plan and "send the money directly to parents" (by converting the existing child care expense deduction inot a refundable tax credit to cover up to 75% of the cost of child care for lower income families). Seems on brand.

Other elements of the Conservative platform, according to the CBC:

Robust role for government spending to prop up the economy thorugh the pandemic, with cash injections for businesses.

Increases the Canada Health Transfer by "at least 6%."

Tax credits on investment (of up to $100K) in small businesses, as well as Federal loans of up to $200K (with 25% potentially forgivable) to small businesses.

A one month GST holiday.

Doubling the Canada Workers Benefit for low income Canadians, payed as a monthly direct deposit rather than an end-of-year tax refund.

Very fancy, and not appropriate for daily use.
