Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community - View Single Post - Canada: Is the Gomery Inquiry going to bring down the Liberals?

Roughly:
Ontario: 1/3 of Canada
Quebec: 1/4 of Canada
West: 1/4 of Canada
Maritimes+Other: 1/6 of Canada

If your party policies alienate 7/12 to 8/12th of Canada, you won't get elected.

Does anyone know a decent Proportional Representation system that
A> Doesn't make parties the be-all and end-all
B> Gives results that are publically verifiable by humans without mechanical assistance
C> Is otherwise as fraud-resistant as naive FPtP voting
?
