    Yea, pretty much every election up here in Canada.

    I’m amazed that Americans think four months “is like literally no time”.

    It’d take an ad spend but the DNC could name recognition pretty much anyone at this point.

      The elections are short, but we’ve known the candidates a long time. De Dluca was elected leader shortly before the election and no one knew who he was and he totally tanked.

      You don’t elect a chief executive in Canada the way we do in the U.S.

      You can’t compare a parliamentary election to our constitutional presidential republic’s elections.
