Stockwell Day - leader of the Canadian Alliance Party - is Canada's Leader of the Official Opposition. In our parlimentary system, the political party that wins the second largest number of seats gets to form the Official Opposition.

I had the pleasure of meeting him and Mrs. Day at a Canadian Alliance rally in November. (Unfortunately it didn't take place on board an Air Canada flight )

NoahVail: everyone's vote counts in a democracy Therefore I'm nominating him as Canada's celebrity of the year. Thanks to 13 horrible cowboy Alliance MPs (who should be expelled IMO), Stockwell Day is now "the Prime Minister who could've been" as opposed to "Future Prime Minister".
