Another call for proportional representation...

Murray Dobbin - rabble.ca - A better world is possible only if we can imagine it
But I have noticed that there is very little in the commentary about the shutting down of Parliament that looks at what we might do that is positive in response to this totalitarian attack on democracy. Shouldn't we be imagining some reforms of the system that would prevent such a thing from happening again -- or at least throw some constitutional road blocks in the way? Shouldn't we be using this as leverage to push for proportional representation which would relegate Stephen Harper and his awful government to the dustbin?
