MODERATORS
The liberals and ndp could form an alliance to pass proportional representation and then immediately call another election.
I have to assume most liberals don't actually want that to happen, and the cpc would go hard on calling it undemocratic.
The liberals just have to put their feet up and wait for 4 years of conservative leadership to piss people off, then they will be back in the driver seat. No need fix any underlying issues.
The Nova Scotia liberals got so desperate this last election that they promised electoral reform.
So everyone other than the conservatives were in support of it, but they still couldn't cooperate to run candidates strategically.
I think Propositional Representation would take far too long to implement before the next election. Ranked Ballot might be possible?
The liberals got in their previous terms promising electoral reform. They have failed to change anything and promising to do it next time is just an empty promise that nobody believes will happen at this point.
