Regional parties WORK for Canada. Overbearing "Federal" parties do not work very well.
Just look at how effective the Bloc have been. Now imagine a parliament full of parties representing specific regions and/or specific issues and we have a functioning party system government. I will cry tears of joy if this ever comes to pass.
