Not just Quebec's allocation, but rules that say a province cannot have fewer MPs than Senators, which is what entrenches the Maritimes' disproportionate number of seats.

And when push comes to shove, the one province most likely to support change voted against STV in a referrendum. But we'll see. Personally, I doubt electoral reform will be a big issue in the minds of either the Liberals or "progressives", now that Literally Hitler and his illegitimate government is gone.
