Thanks for explaining that. It sounds like a better system in that you can force an election at any time. I’m jealous of that right now.
I know the PR and propaganda machines have been going after Canada. I really hope you guys don’t get forced or go willingly down the same road as us. I’ll be looking for that Poilievre person to not be in the running.
Thing is, a government with a majority will often easily win a no-confidence kind of challenge. Especially true of conservatives, whose core strength is blind loyalty, there’s no point in trying.
That’s not how long it takes. We have regional non-conservatives in power here, and they seem to be launching spurious confidence challenges every week. I think their plan is to have so many that people stop showing up and supporting the evil non-cons.
It wouldn’t be a problem if we had proportional representation. In Canada, a party can get a majority government with a minority of the voting population due to how it’s calculated. This often means low voter turnout because a large number of people feel their vote doesn’t count.
So you have the same problem as us. I think in the olden days, our corrupt politicians and elites colluded with the world’s corrupt politicians and elites, and had a good laugh how they set it up in their favor.

You can force an election for a minority government. If one party has a majority, it can go for a while, more then four years
Okay, I’m not jealous of the 4 year part unless it has some hidden benefit. Maybe moving that slow keeps it stable?

Is there nothing it can’t do? (when all you have is a hammer, everything’s a nail)
