This is absolutely wrong. 50 years ago, you had a very strong brokerage model of politics in this country with both parties being able to command strong mandates of 40% plus of the electorate. Now, both are barely able to break 35% and have basically garrisoned themselves into the West (in the case of the CPC) and a handful of cities and Atlantic Canada (LPC).
