@PlzGivHugs @Sunshine The distortions of FPTP greatly serve the Bloc, so it is doubtful they'd join in. E.g. in this election BQ and NDP received about 6% of the vote but got 22 and 7 seats, respectively.

@ladicius @Sunshine Depicted is Doug Ford, current Premiere of Ontario, Canada's most populous province. He is a leader of a provincial conservative party which typically is politically aligned with the federal conservative party.

A bit of drama within the ranks conservative political sphere in Canada is brewing whereby critics of the leader of the federal conservatives (e.g. Ford) and his allies (e.g. Jivani) are sniping at each other through the press. Here, Jivani is calling Ford a turncoat.

As a second-generation Italian immigrant to Canada, Canada is pretty great. (Italy is pretty great too).
