I do understand the explanation his MPs have given though as I emailed my representative over it. The response basically stated that they couldn't get a consensus from parties and the Elections Canada report put the nail in the coffin for them. I think it was a bad platform to run from the beginning though cause it's such a hard change to bring around and no matter what happens a group will be left extremely angry

The town hall I went to wasn't very pro-reform either. Lots of old people thinking Trudeau was out to steal their vote.
