    I wanted electoral reform but I think going for it would have been a mess.

    No two major parties agreed on what should replace FPTP.

    If the liberals had used a majority to unilaterally rewrite our elections that sets a bad precedent (Not that precedent seems to matter much these days).

      He had a majority, didn’t need any input from other parties. He didn’t want to do it because he knew it would stop him from getting a majority at the next election. It’s that simple.
