For now I'm sticking with Kevin W as her F1 though I think it's possible his jealousy got to be to much for Jasmine. I'll admit his edit isn't the best and the preview for the next episode doesn't look good but right now I don't think his edit is the worst either and not enough to completely turn him off her.

All JMO.

Am I the only one who's not bothered by Kevin W and still thinks he is the F1? The jealousy storyline reminds me a lot of Shawn on Kaitlyn's season and I don't think there would be so much focus on that if he wasn't her F1 but in fairness this is my first Canadian season so I'm not sure how similar it is to the American version. I don't know, I just think she's been the most vulnerable with him.

I know you all are hot for Mikhel and I am too because who isn't and I won't be disappointed if she picks him but I don't know about him being the F1. They have a lot of physical chemistry for sure because again who wouldn't with him but I'm not sure I see an emotional connection. I see him more as the next Bachelor.

Mike as nice of a guy he seems to be I just don't really see it there. The female leads are usually physical very early on with their F1 and there was barely a physical connection between them by episode 4. Not good. I think he's very much in the friendzone and she's not sexually attracted to him like she is with Kevin W and Mikhel.

Kevin P was someone I thought early on would make the F3 and I did see it between them at one point but I think Mike overtook him these past two episodes. I think he's probably too honest for this show.

Drew whatever. He was just kept on to be the villain and now that Chris is gone he'll be on his way out.

I'm shocked that Benoit most likely gets a HTD over Thomas. Does she honestly want him to go at her face like that again? [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I'll take the manbun any day.

I guess the difference I notice is that while Kevin has been dubbed as Captain Canada and his edit has been generally positive, it has also had a hint of negativity. Clearly, it is nothing very serious, but the jealousy and the fact that he is shown hanging out and laughing so much with resident, edited villain, Drew...when Drew is being negative...that gives me pause. This is a first season of the Canadian Bette and I wouldn't think that the F1 would get even a hint of negativity.

Mike and Mikhel have both been shown as strong contenders for Jasmine's heart. While Mike and Jasmine's relationship seems to have a bit of a slow burn...despite an initially strong connection, the relationship with Mikhel seems to have gotten more attention. Their chemistry is always highlighted, while the one with Mike is downplayed...despite the fact that it is clearly very strong. This leads me to think that Mike is more the hidden F1 and Mikhel will be the beloved dumpee and possible Canadian Bachelor [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].

I agree with almost all that you have said here except for the bolded.  In the 2 Canadian Bachelor shows the F1's were shown as having jealous moments. Now things could change for this season, who knows, maybe they will start something new.

To be fair i don't think you can call that just jealousy. They were having hard time with the dating multiple persons things but it didn't come accross as jealousy per se regarding a girl in particular (at least not from what i remember).
Also, in those times, the lead is always reinsuring the F1, by spending sqt time ala April and Tim or just by explaining themselves and ask for them to hang in there.
In Jas case, we see that she can be empathetic with the guys if comes the time (KP with Seth situation) but we are not been shown that she is doing anything to help KW through the process. If anything she notices the jealousy but doesn't seem to care.
She even notices that maybe he didn't want to talk to her after her one on ones on the last epi with Drew and Benoit but she didn't pull him aside, nor gave him reinsurance rose or anything.
And we see her rolling her eyes next epi. So this "jealous" edit to me screams not F1.
And i've said this before but in CA version, I've noticed that they always leave little negative snippet on the F2 in the edit and i think it's for us to understand and agree with the F1 decision when time comes. That's what I think is happening with KW edit.
