mpjgregoire, (edited ) One of my fundamental objections to #ProportionalRepresentation is illustrated in this quote from @justinling's recent article about the current PM:
"He was vowing to replace Canada’s electoral system, which tended to give parties power disproportionate to their level of support"
PR advocates believe that each party should have a number of MPs proportionate to the votes that party has received; but the relationship between power and proportion of MPs is inherently nonlinear.
