Canadian Senate elections

That would mean 20 Senators. Quite unlikely...

Or use the current formula.

So, Quebec's 24 Senators would be elected based on those archaic Senate districts that were created before 1867 and dont even cover the entire province?

We should probably start this in the early 1990s, when Senate reform almost became reality.

Yuck.

I could see NDP Senators getting elected in BC, Manitoba and Nova Scotia these days. Maybe even newfoundland if Jack Harris ran for Senate. Gary Doer would get elected to Senate for Manitoba and Chisholm or Alexa McDonough in Nova Scotia. And of course, Mulcair in Quebec.

In my time line that i've temporarily abandoned, I had made Senate districts, but each district was elected like in the U.S. Like, Ontario would have 24 Senators divided among 8 districts. Each Senator would have six year terms. Each district would have 3 Senators, and would be electing a different one every two years.
