    1. It would mean that almost no single party would ever form a majority government and would have to legislate by consensus; a minority government. I think the last time a federal government came close to a true majority was the PC’s under Brian Mulroney; I think the popular vote was 49.8%.

  1. Yeah yhats an old one aint gping nowhere Senate i real porked barrelled through but well abolish the senate àn old one…😥😥😥😥

  2. Our senate does nothing. Our political system, is a joke. Why should the person who may be best for my area reflect my choice for Prime minister. I want seperate votes for all positions!!!! True democracy!

  3. When Jagmeet Singh said “I will not answer your questions” to the news the NDP lost my vote. If they feel superior enough to not answer questions now, imagine how they’ll be in power.

  4. Jagmeet believes in a unionised workforce, its always been the ndp platform, not once has he ever mentioned that

  5. Then why not to reform the Senate? A symbol of federalism and western province should have their voice in the Senate

  6. Politics Not Wear Your Religion On Your Sleeve or Anywhere
    Politics No Religious Symbols, No Ceremonial Knives, None!
    No Religion In Politics, Church n State Separated Many Moon Ago, Eh
