Frankly reducing the impact is more important anyway, and having a larger parliament isn't the worst thing that we could see happen.

You could increase seats, I don't recall Quebec being guaranteed x percentage of the seats.
Section 51 is fairly complex, and it spun my head a couple of times.
But reducing seats is definately a constitutional issue, Quebec is guaranteed that their seats will always increase.
