Pies Inspired By Bardish #4
In the final pie we see clearly the Liberal election result in 2015 nearly perfectly mirrors the Conservative election result in 2011.
The only difference is that now the Liberal Party holds all the power, although it only earned 39% of the vote.
As Bardish tells us in the video, the Liberal Party voted overwhelmingly to adopt the Electoral Reform resolution her riding association put forward, which is why it became Liberal Policy. Justin Trudeau and his campaign team chose to adopt this policy as the prominent campaign promise Bardish was so proud of. And the new Government renewed that promise in the Throne speech (5:13). But now Prime Minister Trudeau gets to govern dictatorially, (just as his predecessor did). He has unilaterally gone back on a promise his own party overwhelmingly supported that he might keep the disproportional power he acquired in the unfair electoral system he vowed to replace.
First Past The Post is as unfair today as it ever was. It seems Mr. Trudeau’s Liberal Party doesn’t mind treating Canadians unfairly if they benefit.
Not real change after all.
