One MP switching parties should not be able to decide whether a government gets majority power. First-past-the-post turns small seat shifts into absolute power, even without majority support. Proportional representation keeps majority power tied to how people actually voted.

For decades, Ontario has relied on electricity trade with the U.S., but it’s time to cut dependence by expanding our east-west grid instead of buying costly American nuclear technology and fuel.
