Shorter John Ibbitson:

If wishes were horses, Layton and May would ride.

Actually, I find Ibbitson's point to be ridiculous -- whether Britain switches to proportional representation will make no difference to Canada because, who cares anymore what Britain does?
Before Canadians would support this, we would have to see some clear advantage to do it, and right now the only parties who want it are the smaller ones that the majority of Canadians do not vote for.
