And the SCC will laugh and toss it out because the Conservatives don't have a constitutionally guaranteed right to be competitive in elections. The only ones who could likely challenge it on Constitutional grounds are the provinces, if the new system results in less seats for Quebec and the Atlantic provinces, or if individual citizens can demonstrate that the new system violates their right to vote.
