It's a shame that there are 0 parties in the country who, when they've come to power in any jurisdiction, have implemented it.

Even the ones who claim to have it as party policy.

It's still better to vote for parties that promise proportional representation (Greens🟢/NDP🟧/Bloc⚜️) than none at all (LPC/CPC).

Only parties that would benefit from it are going to take it seriously.

Why would the Liberals and Conservatives ever implement it. It would only hurt them.

You will never get election reform by voting those two parties.

To be clear, this isnt a blanket statement on who you should vote for. Just that voting for the two main parties will not net election reform to any meaningful degree.
