Quoth Paul Wells:

Peter Van Loan tables a constitutional amendment to increase the seat representation of faster-growing provinces. Watch the reaction in Quebec, whose share of the House of Commons seems sure to decrease.

This must, of mathematical necessity, also be true in every other province which doesn't gain additional seats.

Watch the reaction in Dannystan, where the "we're only 7 seats out of 295" of the early 1990s became "we're only 7 seats out of 301" in 1996 and "we're only 7 seats out of 308" in 2004.
