It's sad to me because the Prime minister is much like an elected dictator. If you don't vote the party line, you get tossed. If we had free votes in the house a member could at least vote the way his or her constituents wanted rather than the way the PMO wanted them to.
There is no way proportional representation will ever happen, the ruling party would never allow it IMO.
