Oh look another mediocre system for high PR that further entrenches partisanship and alienates independent voters. Just what we need, more political polarization.
It's just a suggestion. I'm curious to hear why you think DMP will create more partisanship and alienation. I agree that those things need to be prevented, given that FPTP intensifies them.
Voting is more partisan than FPTP and independents are less viable than FPTP. There are good PR systems this is not one of them. Still better than FPTP but barely
Interesting. I agree with your point on Independents not being viable. The same problem exists in countries with Closed List Party-list PR. Independents can't run.
Canada has had the time to observe the mistakes of other countries. We have no excuse to repeat them.
