And all for our entertainment.
The series doesn’t arrive on our screens until Wednesday, October 11, but we’ve been given a sneak peek at some of the women who will be looking for love this year.
So, from an Ontarian mermaid to a Calgarian pageant queen, here are 10 of the women who will be vying to get their hands on Chris’, *cough*, rose.
