meself BS: Federal election (Canada) (143* d) RE: BS: Federal election (Canada) 21 Sep 21


I was surprised that the Conservatives 'won' the popular vote by a few percentage points, while winning about 30 fewer seats than the Liberals. As in the American system, but not as extreme, it does seem something of a flaw. The simplest solution seems to be to re-jig some of the ridings, which I gather is done periodically (I never paid attention to it before).

We had a Liberal elected in Calgary, which is noteworthy, in a largely South Asian riding. There may be another Liberal from Calgary; the votes are still being counted.
