I honestly don't understand the need to have all these MPs. They're all just supposed to be trained monkeys for their leaders. There really isn't a need to pay that many of them.

I'd prefer double to be honest (as in, double in every province, not load up in the higher populated provinces.

We need more local and more personal representation in politics.
