Kind of a bummer watching how duopolistic Canada is, TBH.
FPTP do be like that. It's actually kind or remarkable we have significant minor parties.

True story.
If coalition governments are more democratic it's crazy how France, Austria, Germany, and Czech Republic (and probably more) all support genocide, prevent protests against it, accuse citizens of being antisemites, and veto attempts by international courts to do something about genocide. But then again, other coalitions like in Belgium can go against the trend.
At least Canada's two party system turned away from Trump. Canadians did better with two parties than other countries can do with 20.

For now. America did the same in 2020, not that it mattered in the end.
Turning away from Trump doesn't matter when you get the same result wrapped in a more polite package.
