Our fun-house mirror of an electoral system has produced another deformed legislature, this time on PEI.

The Tories who earned a slim majority at 56% of the vote will get a whopping 82% of the seats! While the opposition parties who attracted 43% of the vote will get only 5 seats.

Winner takes all distorts our politics and policies. It doesn't need to be like this. We can have proportional representation instead.
