THE votes are in and Canada has come out of its election with a super hot new leader.

Polls had only just closed in Ontario and Quebec when the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation projected Liberal leader Justin Trudeau would be Canada’s next prime minister.

Mr Trudeau was up against conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper who has lost office after nine years of rule. But Mr Harper never really stood a chance up against the son of a former PM who looks like this.

The 43-year-old, who made a late surge from third place, is the eldest son of Pierre Trudeau, considered the father of modern Canada.

As well as being incredibly good looking, having an adorable family and being a good guy, the accomplished boxer and family man also seems to be a competent politician, promising to offer “not just a change in government, but a better government”. He’s a former teacher who has been an opposition member of Parliament since 2008.

The Liberal leader was hoping to end nine years of conservative rule in Canada with a repeat of the “Trudeaumania” that swept his late father to power in 1968, replacing the plodding style of the old guard with a bullish vision and flare that Canadians were craving.

Trudeaumania has certainly swept social media at least.

Antonia Maioni, a political-science professor at Montreal’s McGill University, told AP the room changes when Mr Trudeau enters.

“It’s like a celebrity thing. Bill Clinton had that. Not many people or politicians can do that. Mr Trudeau can do that. That’s why now you hear the Conservatives say it’s not a popularity contest,” Maioni said.

“Mr Trudeau can raise that kind of excitement in a room, but let’s be frank: he does not have a lot of political experience.”

The Conservatives have blitzed the country with TV ads targeting Mr Trudeau, saying “He’s just not ready.”

But Mr Trudeau is tapping into an appetite for change among many Canadians with promises to cut taxes for the middle class and increase them for the wealthy. He plans to spend billions on infrastructure, running deficits for three years to do so. And he has pledged to take in 25,000 Syrian refugees by the end of the year.

For many Canadians, the election had become a referendum on Mr Harper’s stiff management style, as well as who would be best placed to put the country’s struggling economy back on track.

Some maybe just thought the other guy was cute.
