And while elections may be based stupididly on rep by pop, you can't base running the country on that.



1 person- 1 vote.

yeah, that is a stupid idea. Damn democracy.



the most amazing thing of this argument is that everyone keeps commenting on evil Ontario being the reason the Liberals are still in power.
-the conservatives lost 5 previously Tory seats in BC, as well as two new seats.
-Ontario elected 22 new Conservative MPs in 2004, the biggest increase in any province.
--PEI was 100% Liberal
-the Liberals swept the North again
-the conservatives lost their only seat in Quebec

The conservatives gained more ground in Ontario, than Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba combined, even after a brutal Provincial Tory government. If you want to see where the Conservatives failed go further East, where they failed to gain a single seat in Quebec, or improve at all in NFLD, they actually lost ground in NB and NS, while PEI was 100% Liberal.
