Re:Vote Skew (Score 1)

Exactly, I've been arguing this on other online forums but all I get as responses are "you don't really understand the proportional system". Unfortunately I think too many Canadians look at American politics and thing what's going on there applies to us (i.e. electing a leader instead of electing an MP). The one area where I think proportional voting might work well is in our senate representation. If the senate seats provincial representation was represented by popularity instead of by winning a seat, it could be an interesting balance to the riding based house of commons, and have the added benefit of not having to go to the polls a million more times to elect senators.
