We don’t think there has ever been a time Americans collectively paid this much attention to a Canadian federal election. Folks south of our border are showing an astonishing amount of interest, and it’s all because of, well, Justin Trudeau and his dashing good looks.

Yep, Americans think our soon-to-be 23rd prime minister is a total babe and they’re taking to Twitter to let us know that we’ve done a great global service by electing him.

We’re glad America approves

Congratulations Canada on electing a hot Prime Minister. pic.twitter.com/DzVkHnXawH — Brightest Young Gays (@BYGays) October 20, 2015

…because that’s what matters.

After all, Canada chose change. Some might even call it the start of a new era

Are we all aware that Canada’s new prime minister is fine AF?! pic.twitter.com/Tkd12j2tIS — Scare-a Beninghosta (@SaraJBenincasa) October 20, 2015

Yes, we’re quite aware.

In fact, our neighbours to the south made a variety of surprisingly astute observations. This tweet, for example, is 104 per cent accurate:

Uh oh. Now everyone is going to dress up as Sexy Canada this coming Halloween. — Mackro (@mackromackro) October 20, 2015

We think it’s a mighty fine costume idea.

On the plus side, at least Americans are finally willing to admit that some things are just better in Canada

We have no hottie mc bodies in our presidential race. Canada you are outhotting us without even trying. Without even brushing your teeth. — Alisha Rai (@AlishaRai) October 20, 2015

No matter who the US elects in 2016, even if Biden runs, we have already lost the hotness race to Canada. — Caissie St.Onge (@Caissie) October 20, 2015

Biden ain’t got nothing on Trudeau.

And the Yanks seem to hate us a little less

Good job electing the hottie. I don’t hate you as much now. @Canada — sophie (@cahckles) October 20, 2015

But they are mad that we never informed them of this development

Dear Canada: Why did none of you mention the “Canadian Hottie President” thing until now? — Three Whelp Desk (@Druidis4fite) October 20, 2015

…even though we literally just elected the dude.

And want to state for the record that they think he’s absolutely scrumptious

congrats to canada for electing the first edible prime minister pic.twitter.com/bwHq897LQx — Sean McElwee (@SeanMcElwee) October 20, 2015

(Please don’t try and eat him.)

Its citizens have already begun the trade negotiations

Sorry, no returns.

Our borders are going to be flooded

Americans: remember in 2004 when smart people were like, “I’m moving to Canada if Bush wins again?” NEW REASON. pic.twitter.com/XObV3CVyFA — Scare-a Beninghosta (@SaraJBenincasa) October 20, 2015

Why yes, I will be among the swarm of American people moving to Canada attempting to seduce the prime minister. — Cash (@maybeinparis) October 21, 2015

Me: This is the new Prime Minister of Canada. Krissy: Are you joking? Me: No. Krissy: We’re moving to Canada. pic.twitter.com/gdL8c2zsy2 — John Scalzi (@scalzi) October 20, 2015

The question is, should we welcome them with open arms?

They even created #PMILF (a.k.a. prime minister I’d like to f@#k) for Trudeau

I’m an American, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but in a sea of Hollandes and Putins, it would be nice to have a Trudeau. #PMILF — Gypsy Danger (@Kat_Olenska) October 19, 2015

“@Lexialex: Wait…Canada…this is your new prime minister? WELP! Is it too late to become a citizen? pic.twitter.com/O7k1tTFhqQ” #PMILF — Susan B Harty (@Hildebryn) October 20, 2015

Things are really getting out of hand…

Luckily, there are a few ready with a reality check

How will the Canadians ever tackle climate change when their new prime minister is so hot? Yow! — Sarah Walker (@swalks) October 20, 2015

We’re screwed, right?
