Quoted from this source 1 passage

  • “In 1997, Prime Minister Jean Chretien's Liberals had won only 39 per cent of the popular vote. But because of vote-splitting between the Canadian Alliance and Progressive Conservatives, and the winner-take-all system, Mr. Chretien won a second majority. Sixty-one per cent of the electorate had chosen parties other than his.”
