Summary
A record 7.3 million people have cast their ballots over four days of advanced voting in Canada’s election, marking a 25% increase over the 5.8m advanced ballots cast in the 2021 vote.
There are further indications the election campaign dominated by threats from Donald Trump has galvanized voters, including unusually high ratings for two debates last week.
Prime Minister Mark Carney is the frontrunner, though Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative party is incrementally gaining ground.
This year, polling points to a two-party Liberal-Conservative race.
And multi-party systems lead to coalition government, which disproportionately empowers centrist parties that will work with either the right or the left.
There is no electoral system without anomalies.
I don’t understand what you want said with that statement, that two party systems are better? Just as good as multi party systems? That they are all bad so you should just take your pick and be happy?
