I'd rather that they reduce the number of MPs instead of increase them, but that would be a political no-go. Can you imagine the uproar anywhere if they had 5-10 MPs taken away? Total non-starter, even if it would be the best thing in terms of cost and effectiveness.
Ontario's whole point was 2 fold:
- "it's only fair"... who said anything about fairness?
- "It's about equality" ... who said anything in Canada was equal?
