Quote:I couldn't agree more with Mr. Cairns, it seems. I'll have to track down his article.
The strength granted to anti-Liberal (and anti-federal) forces in this province by their essential monopoly on the provincial government really grates on me. Their position appears implacable, since they win every election, and yet there is a consistent opposition to them that is almost totally silenced by the nature of FPTP.
Thanks for the reference!

But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
