Every province gets 2 representatives
I'm always baffled why people in Western Canada think giving the Atlantic Provinces 40% of the senate seats when they make up less than 8% of the country's population is a good idea. I'm further baffled why people think this will give the West more power in Ottawa; on the vast majority of issues, Atlantic Canada is far more likely to vote with Quebec and Ontario than they are with the West.
