        It won’t matter what he does, we will swap to the cons on the next election because it’s been 10 years.

        FPTP always trends towards a 2 party System.

        It’s why I laugh when people think the Republican party will be non electable in the US. Give it a couple terms and people will want the Dems out.

          It really depends on if any Rs face actual consequences for the shit they are definitely going to try and pull in regards to a fair election. Also whether there are “moderate” Dems that continue to prevent real progress.

        The liberals need to also stop being selfish and actually compromise with the smaller parties and independents for electoral reform.

              The LPC would rather swap chairs with the CPC every few years than give the NDP any credibility.

              The current system suits them just fine. A system where they can’t get a majority with 35% of the vote isn’t something they’re interested in.

              There’s no amount of pressure that’ll change this. It’ll take the NDP and BQ pulling off a surprise win and ramming PR through.

              What is more pressure going to do? Except for STV, electoral reform is a losing game for the LPC.

      We gotta keep exposing them with their past actions. I believe Pierre Poilievre will drop hard eventually.
