The three party set up currently really benefits the conservatives. While the left is split between two major parties and the lesser Greens, the right is consolidated under the CPC spanning from centrist progressive conservatives to the nut bars who buy the jihadi fear mongering and more.

It's almost as though Canada needs its own Tea Party equivalent on the national stage to split the right as well and have more representative balance.
