FPTP vs MMP

[D. Hugh Redelmeier]

| 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.

I don't understand how you (and several other people) talk as if
changing the system would not change how people vote.  It surely
would.  So you cannot take a past election's statistics and say what
would have happened with MMP.  You don't even know what parties would
have been available.
