TORONTO, Aug. 22, 2016 /CNW/ - With the premiere of The Bachelorette Canada less than a month away, W Network has revealed five more eligible Bachelors from across the country vying for Jasmine Lorimer's affection. The men revealed today include an aviation engineer from Ottawa, a welder from Halifax, a multimedia content producer from Hamilton, a firefighter/paramedic from Winnipeg and a management consultant from Toronto. The final five Bachelors will be revealed on August 29 before the highly-anticipated premiere of The Bachelorette Canada on September 13 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on W Network.

The Bachelors revealed today are:

Mikhel, 28
Ottawa, Ont.
Aviation Engineer
As an aviation engineer, 28-year-old Mikhel has his dream job and the freedom to indulge his passion for motorcycles in his spare time. The only thing missing from his life is someone to share it with. Sensitive and thoughtful, Mikhel is not afraid to show his emotions and might even shed a tear during sad movies. A self-described "hopeless romantic," Mikhel tends to fall hard and fast. Despite having his heart broken in the past, he is ready to put it on the line for the Bachelorette. 

Ross, 31
Halifax, N.S.
Welder
Energetic and adventurous, Ross describes himself as the "real deal." Based in Halifax, N.S., the 31-year-old welder hopes his authenticity will set him apart from the other Bachelors. Fun-loving Ross prides himself on knowing how to balance good times with hard work. His ideal mate is someone who is loyal, ambitious and creative.

Kyle, 36
Hamilton, Ont.
Multimedia Content Producer
Standing tall at a jaw-dropping 6'8", Kyle is an imposing figure but this self-employed multimedia producer is a softy at heart, especially when it comes to cats. Always ready with a joke, he prides himself on his ability to diffuse tense situations with humour. At 36-years-old, Kyle is older than the average Bachelor, a fact he hopes will work in his favour. Self-assured and completely secure with who he is and what he wants out of life, Kyle is ready to show the Bachelorette what a real man looks like.

Mike, 29
Winnipeg, Man.
Firefighter/Paramedic
Mike is a dedicated firefighter/paramedic, charity organizer and heavy metal musician. His greatest reward in life is connecting with the individuals whose lives he has saved. At 29-years-old, Mike is looking for a partner who will be his best friend forever and commit to building a happy and successful future together. He always puts 100 per cent into everything he does, and Mike wants the Bachelorette to know this experience will be no exception. Once he decides to pursue something, he is unstoppable.

Andrew, 29
Toronto, Ont.
Management Consultant
Andrew is a successful entrepreneur who turned his first profit in the second grade selling toys on the playground at 100 per cent markup. He attributes his "hustle" to his parents, who taught him he could have whatever he wanted as long as he earned it. Andrew is looking for someone who is gorgeous, sweet, honest and genuine to share his life with. He hopes this life includes three golden retrievers, lots of children and a white picket fence. Andrew's ready to bring the right girl home to meet his tight-knit family, including his identical twin brother.
