Also I think the run-off is a bad idea, we have a hard enough time getting 60% of the population to vote once, and now you want to make them vote 3+ times?

I don't think that's necessarily true. Harper was the extremely unpopular with left-wing voters but there isn't always going to be a Harper in every election. I think a lot of NDP and Green voters would be putting those two parties as 1 and 2 on their ballots. I still don't particularly like the ranked ballot idea but it's not the worst idea I've heard.
