If we had a proportional representation system we'd have the majority of the House of Commons controlled through by an agreement agreement between the Liberals and the NDP. Exactly the situation we have now except the seats would be directly owned by the parties instead of representing communities.

Proportional representation is the preferred system for people that understand politics via spreadsheets while completely ignoring power dynamics.

Give me some STV! MMP seems to work well for NZ¹. Electoral reform won't fix everything, but it will allow a path for more adaptability in politics at the very least.

¹ I'm also okay with AV (instant runoff). Is it perfect? No, but let not the perfect be the enemy of the good. AV at least overcomes the spoiler effect, and would allow more diversity of parties. AV does tend to encourage coalitions formed around a centrist party with broad support (probably the Liberals in Canadian federal politics) as they will tend to be the 2nd or 3rd pick, but the balance of other parties in any resulting coalition would tend to drive things. Plus, without the spoiler effect of FPTP there can always be a competitor for the centre. Basically. FPTP is the worst, and although I have my preferences, less bad is still improvement. Also, AV can always serve as a palate cleanser for full STV.

We need an electoral system that doesn't take power from a large party that most people voted for and give it to a tiny fringe party that almost none voted for. Look at what's happening in Israel. The most extreme party to get any seats is calling the shots because they hold the balance of power. Wouldn't Canada be fun if the christofascists or tankies were calling the shots?
