    But so you know well that a party committing to change the voting system will have a change of heart after realizing the current system brought them to power. (I’m in Canada too ;) ).

      Of course, and how we force the issue I don’t know. I wish people would just stop strategically voting altogether because it only delays, and grows, the issue but that’s a lost cause. Not that I don’t continue to fight that fight but I know that winning people over toward voting in their best interests isn’t the way.
