What I meant to say is that MMP wouldn't have given us back to back Mike 
Harris majority governments.

Anyhow Bob Rae was re-elected in his own riding, ;-).

So in the 1995 election with the PCs at 44.8%, the Liberals at 39.9%, 
and the NDP at 12.6%, we might have had a Liberal minority government 
with the NDP holding the balance of power.

Anyhow why does Bob Rae get blamed for a recession which was caused by 
1) a recession in the States and 2) Bank of Canada John Crow's 0% 
inflation policy.
