Canada

I want electoral reform as much as anyone but I don't want someone who knowingly supported those who had intent of burning down parliament, ceding land to america and Russia, executing members of gov for 'treason', and overthrowing said gov.

It's almost like there's some example somewhere of something similar happening.

That said, if we did get rid of fptp we'd never have to worry about a conservative gov ever again. Ever.

Still, it's like comparing apples to magas.

pp is soft, but he's hard for maga.

Their plan was to implement ranked ballots and have Liberal party majorities for the rest of time. When Trudeau realized they couldn't, electoral reform did not happen.

Trudeau did me a real solid by resigning. 2015 was the last time I voted Liberal and I'd since vowed never to vote for a Liberal under Trudeau again until electoral reform was delivered. If everything else today was identical but swap Carney with still Trudeau, I'd be seriously conflicted.

I think I have a pretty even-handed opinion about him that fairly considers his strengths and failings overall. But I can never see still having FPTP as anything less than a cynical, partisan betrayal of the nation. It is the singularly important time that he chose to rule rather than represent, and by extension denied Canada our best chance to rehabilitate our own demons. Instead, the reasserted disenfranchisement powered growing anti-establishment movements that aren't even completely wrong while they threaten our very core values.

Addendum: to clarify, I'm not saying I think he deliberately put party over country. His choices and conclusions, however, demonstrated motivated reasoning at its finest. I think history has already proven him wrong. And while his own views evolved enough that he could acknowledge his mistake, he still didn't try to fix it.
