I don't think that the mixed proportional system has any advantage over what I refer to as moderate proportional representation. I don't believe that maintaining single-member constituencies is better than having constituencies with three, four or five members. I think that voters would like to be able to choose their member and choose to which member they can reach out. I cannot prove that. We would have to apply it to see. I am convinced that local representation is necessary, that local representation comes from a member with a stronghold because they are competing with others in the election. After the election, they are alone in their riding and no longer have rivals. That may be easier for the members, but I don't think it's preferable for Canadians.
I think Canadians would like that. I believe the only justification for the mixed proportional system is having a proportional overall result while maintaining single-member constituencies. It is more complicated and more difficult to do in our current situation. I think that moderate proportional representation is a bit better than the mixed proportional system and much easier to implement. That is my opinion.
