The problem is in how we elect our MP's. Its all on "population" pools. Which is ridiculous because we just do not have the density. We need electoral reform. Pure and simple.

But we are such a status quo society, we cannot even do it in BC when we had a clear oppertunity to make some serious electoral changes.

We will not see any electoral reform at the federal level for some time. They have no reason to do so since they know they get the votes in the east.

What has to happen is all the western provinces need to get together and put big time pressure on the federal gov to bring forth some changes, but I do not think we do that by saying we are going to leave this country. A more firm but respectable protest is needed.
