I would disagree. I think a significant amount of people, certainly enough to dispel any notion of a "vast majority" on the other side, would consider it a waste of taxpayer dollars (normally a supposed concern for Conservatives but likely eager to spend our dollars on this issue).
A referendum isn't binding. If they're set on changing the system, would you prefer them put on some show to pretend like your opinion deeply matters?
The voters already spoke. The Liberals were voted in with election reform as one of their key platforms.
