Hey Canada! Does how we vote work for you?
The way we vote now means half the country isn’t in the House.
How we vote now: 54 percent of voters helped elect an MP. The rest cast a ballot that elected no one. How we could vote: 96 percent of voters helped elect an MP.
VoteLab helps you imagine what it would be like if Canada voted the way they do in other democracies. Cast your ballot the way you would elsewhere, and explore how our election results might change.
