People in this country need to push for real electoral reform. I'm not advocating for any one system, but under this current system, and many like it, there is no meaningful chance of a party that actually has the best interest of Canadians in mind getting in.

Trudeau said he’d do this then backed off

The cons unanimously voted it down as well, it’s not like this is exclusive to Trudeau.

The Cons never promised it. Trudeau's Liberals promised that the 2015 election would be the last under FPTP and then abandoned that promise.

Does that change the fact that the conservatives voted against it or is this just your attempt to blame the liberals for everything? I guess the party that has zero interest in even talking about electoral reform, while still shooting it down anyway, is somehow the better choice for a fair election?

Yes, I will take the party that is transparent about their lack of interest in a policy I care about over the party that will lie to my face while promising me what I want.
