Conservative trolls seem to be out in force in these comments -- and maybe Liberal trolls too, as they have found Canada's electoral and political systems seem much fairer after they won a majority with less than 40% of the votes cast. (To be fair, provincial NDP governments too have done little or nothing in this area.)

Public financing by votes won was the best and most democratic thing Chretien ever did. No wonder that the rich people's parties support wide open political financing, but Canadians should demand reinstatement of  this reform.
