Parliamentary PR is fine. If you're having difficulties forming a democratic government under it, you were probably going to have similar problems sooner or later under FPTP.

Specifically, if dems don’t spend the next two years strengthening democracy (campaign finance reform, eliminate FPTP/Elec Col, regain election accountability), this will be nothing but a fun blip in the radar.
So anyway how bad do we think dems will fumble this?

Why shd it be concerning to urban voters? Because the majority report will systematically (esp YYC and esp esp Lethbridge) create large hybrid rural/urban (rurban) ridings large enough to swamp the urban vote in a FPTP system.

Zohran actually benefited the least from any transfers until we got to Lander's reallocation!
Regardless, this is an easy FPTP and Condorcet victory for Zohran

PR doesn’t create fragmentation so much as make it legible. FPTP can temporarily hide the same divisions behind an artificial majority, which is hardly the same as solving them.

MA QUESTION 3
The Top-Two primary is hell, the only thing worse than FPTP. Vote splits control everything. You can wind up with two Republicans in the general just because the primary had 5 Ds and 3 Rs. Instead of voting your conscience in the primary, you have to vote strategically to avoid this.

Yes under FPTP, running as an independent only helps Republicans. This could cost 2 Senate seats this election. This will be an expensive lesson for some people.
