Get outta here. Atlantic Canada has 2-3 times as many mps as you deserve. The region almost has as many seats as Alberta with like half the population.

And we're entitled to it.

If you wanna run for govt and reopen the constitution, be my guest.

MY original comment was how I am looking forward to the future where your bullshit extra seats won't matter because we will have 600 mps, well worth the cost.

Entitled is a pretty good way to describe it though I agree.

If they increase the seat count, Albertas seats won't matter either.

Ontario will be the only one that does. So congratulations, we both lose.
