About Me
- Unhypentated Canadian
- I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.

There are people in New Zealand that are not too happy with MMP now, and want a referendum. My penfriend frpm NZ hates it and she has from the beginning , and she is very level headed.
Litz - you are correct. A lawyer in my small town wrote a letter to the editor of our local newspaper setting out how bad it's going in New Zealand and how they are NOT happy with it.
I wish I'd kept the article - I could have set it out for you.
I've also heard the story of "gridlocks".
Certainly there are interesting implications of lists being identified with the list candidates rather than with the parties as a whole. One is that parties are going to have to be very careful not to put any potentially controversial candidates on their lists, since one guy making a politically incorrect comment during the campaign could turn voters across the province off the party's list altogether (since his name is on it -- whether a party can remove someone from the list partway through a campaign is one of the zillions of unanswered questions about MMP). So I would expect a lot of really bland list candidates and furious efforts by the various parties' war rooms to dig up dirt on the opposing listers in order to taint the opposing parties' list.
