Liberal minority to be reduced?

Recounts in two ridings could further reduce the Liberals' minority status by as many seats. Co-operation with the New Democrats could still leave them three seats short. Interesting times are ahead.

In the meantime Fair Vote Canada has given us a sense of what the election results would have been if this country had proportional representation:

If seats had been awarded to parties on the basis of the votes they received, the Liberals, Bloc and Conservatives would have had fewer seats and the NDP and Green Party more seats. For example, rather than 135 seats, the Liberals would have received about 113. The NDP, rather than 19 seats would have had about 48. The Greens, rather than no seats, would have had about 12 seats.

Perhaps it's finally time for electoral reform.
