And how is that unfair, exactly? Over a third of Canada's total population lives in Ontario. In fact, they're actually under represented in parliament. Alberta has a lower citizen per MP ratio than Ontario does.

I think everyone understands this.
A perfect example of how a democracy can work around regional problems like we have is one to the south. With each region (state/. province) given equal power. That way no one area can run roughshod over another like the East (ie Quebec and Ontario) does to Alberta. And yes other provinces as well.
Basically we live under Ontario's and to a lesser extent Quebec's dictatorship. They choose the rulers and villify us as outsiders and crazies. The rulers abuse us to keep their "Bread and Butter" happy.
