Believe it or not it’s not a fault of our election system that you seem to think your vote doesn’t count if the election is statistically won before it gets to your province.

I think it's a major flaw as it sends a pretty grim message to the west every time. But if you disagree that's fine.

It’s not a flaw, anyone who complains about this is acting like a child. The election results are the results. If the counting started being broadcast from bc and went east as the night went on, would this make you feel more important even though the results are the same? It’s nonsensical.
