The reason why Canadian elections have perverse results is that the first past the post system rewards concentrated support and penalises parties with votes spread more thinly.
Given that most Quebec seats are won by the Bloc Quebecois (likely to return about 40-50 seats for the forseeable future) and the New Democratic Party (with more than twice the Bloc's overall vote) is likely to elect 20-40 members, the results will be highly disproportional and neither of the two major parties is likely to obtain an overall majority.
First past the post is incompatible with meaningful democracy.
