I actually don't like the Canadian system for a couple of key reasons. We can't select the leader of our country unless we're willing to accept his party as a whole.

There is no true oversight over the parliment since the senate is basically a party driven rubber stamp brigade, whose interests lie not in the best policy or the best interests of the country, but in how they can work in conjunction with the party that appointed them.
