As reported on CBC today, the Minister of Democratic Reform (I've learned of a new ministry today!) has introduced a bill to address population growth concerns as related to adequate representation in the House.
Under the proposal, Alberta and British Columbia will both gain seats, five and seven each respectively.
The problem is that Ontario would be on schedule to receive an additional 10 seats!!! I have issue with this.
Ontario is already over-represented in the House. Onatario decides the government. Ontario has too much sway in Ottawa, Ontario.
However, not to fret, this change wouldn't be implemented until 2017. Wow! That's such a big number! And it's also ten years from now.
