I get what you’re implying, but no it’s not a big deal here in Canada either.

Number of gay PM's in Canada = 0, we don't even elect women. Poilievre was up 30 points while gay bashing.

Number of gay PMs in the Netherlands = 0 too. This guy hasn't been sworn in yet. PP was mostly trans bashing by the way, but my point is that I don't recall the sexuality of candidates being a relevant thing in elections here. Also, "We don't elect women?" that's just downright incorrect - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_female_first_ministers_in_Canada
