If donnie trump, lauren boebert, marjorie taylor greene, matt gaetz, ron desantis and greg abbott were in Canada they would be running for the CPC. The people in Canada actually running for the CPC are exactly like this.

    Our system has it’s own quirks that leave us vulnerable, though. First past the post in combination with our parliamentary system means parties can conceivably win a majority and make whatever changes they want with as low as 38% of the vote. Personally I think it’s the right time for the NDP to push the Liberals for electoral reform. It’s not the most exciting topic nor the highest on people’s mind at the moment, but a move to MMP would ensure that any party would need better than 50% of the population to be behind them to do such things, at least.
