It’s very likely that the Liberals will have to work with the NDP to form government. Isn’t it a no brainer for the NDP to make electoral reform a deal breaking issue?
Lack of proportional representation is what has led to their laughable 7 seats.
The liberals will find working with the bloc a lot harder than the NDP, so electoral reform seems like an acceptable deal from their end too, right?
Should we be excited for this?
What’s the best way to start this process? Other countries have done it, why aren’t we? My riding is conservative so I’m not sure how to help here.
Simple things you can do, to grow the proportional representation movement—so we never have to vote for the lesser of the evils, have a two party system, “split the vote”, or strategic vote
Fwiw PR would be better for moderate conservatives, because a separate centre-right party would be better able to work with the Liberals for stuff they want, whereas as it stands being coopted by the far right they’re going to struggle to do anything without a majority. Depending on your MP’s leanings you might be able to advocate for support.
