Wipe Them All Out
So Gilles Duceppe wants to wipe every single liberal. Stephen Harper wants to do the same to every liberal in Alberta. The liberals almost wiped out every conservative in the past in 1993 the PC party was almost wiped off the political map. This form of political domination happens not because the parties are winning over 80% of the vote but rather because the identical results are repeated in each riding in a specific region.
In Canada, all ridings are not equal. Voters in too-close to call ridings actually have the power to turf their MPs unlike the rest where voters have zero impact because their MP is leading all the public polls in his riding. Votes are being wasted and if Canadians want this to end this should experiment with a proportional voting system where every vote in equal and all seats are distributed by the national or provincial voting percentage rather than riding by riding challenges. The senate would be the perfect place to try this out.
