What’s more chilling than Trump’s presidency? The fact that we use the same system that just handed him total control.

First-past-the-post fuels a hyper-partisan two-party system.

If we want to protect democracy in Canada, we need proportional representation.

    Totally, FPTP is bad.

    On further consideration I think the best move for Canada is to explore membership in the EU, which I believe would entail some level of PR and would be more difficult to criticize from a legitimacy stand point, and would be beneficial in terms of reducing our economic dependence on a now notoriously fickle trading partner.
