They can't be serious

According to the Globe and Mail the adult wing of the Liberal Party is taking their youth wing serious in their attempt to make a Bloq Quebecois vote worth less than any other vote.

....Mr. Lapierre said yesterday that the Bloc is "stuffed to the gills" with public money and he thinks a proposal to have the public money paid out based on the number of candidates each party fields has to be considered when Canada's election-finance law comes up for automatic review this winter.
"There are lots of people, in the party anyway, who think it is pretty peculiar to stuff the Bloc this way. But there is a whole debate to be had on the reform of the electoral law, and if the youth are interested in that, I'm very comfortable with that."
Mr. Lapierre said he has not made up his mind on whether there should be changes, but said the issue should certainly be up for grabs. "Has this favoured participation in democracy? I think this is a question we must all ask."

Instead a scrapping a law that is as "dumb as a bag of hammers" the Liberals may be adding more layers to it. But this is typical Liberal ideology. The cure for bad governance is bigger bad governance.
