It looks like he's had some not-so-flash polling lately. I don't know how the Canadian political system works (is it similar to ours?), but hopefully it plays out a bit better than when Joe hurriedly stepped aside before the US election last year...and we all know what happened next.

Yep Canada is close to us than the USA.

 

The cabinet positions for example MUST be elected MPs, just like us.
I don't believe they have proportional voting, but they do have more than just 2 parties in elected positions.

And now the election for a new PM is underway:

(I found Al Jazeera's site quite good as it auto-updates)

 

It's amazing how the Liberal party's fortunes have changed since Justin stepped down - they were on track to lose, but since the orange buffoon started banging on about making Canada the 51st state, and all his tariff nonsense-talk, the Conservative guy has basically been tied to Trump and seen his polling numbers drop.

 

Going to be interesting to see how it all shakes out.
