I'm surprised I haven't heard anyone compare Greens and the Bloc yet - Bloc got about 1% more of the popular vote and TEN TIMES the seats. FPTP is fucked.

"It’s essential, but it’s not urgent" - this it's exactly why it will never happen. As was already said, unless reform it's made a priority it will never happen. If you're not willing to make it a priority your just blowing hot air after a bitter election result.

Yes but will Singh and the NDP make movement on electoral reform (at minimum, a national Citizens’ Assembly) a condition for supporting matters of confidence in the House?
Singh can decry the system all he wants, but it is actually within his power to move towards changing it. If he doesn’t make it a condition for supporting the Liberals, all he’s doing is blowing hot air.
