Canada already has politicians who spread conspiracies on everything from LGBTQ rights to vaccines to immigration.

First-past-the-post doesn’t block them—it hides them in big parties that can win all the power with 40% of the vote.

Demand proportional representation.

Flowchart titled "Power of extremists by voting system." It compares how an extremist politician can gain power under two systems: First-past-the-post (top path) and Proportional representation (bottom path). Under First-past-the-post, the extremist becomes leader of a major party, the party wins 100% power with 39% of the vote, and the extremist leads the country. Under Proportional, the extremist becomes leader of a small party, the party wins a proportional block of seats, and the impacts of the extremist are limited. A footnote defines political extremism using Wikipedia and Cambridge Dictionary.
