MODERATORS
He won't, and if he does it's inevitably going to be ranked ballots which unfairly favours the Liberal Party and won't have the desired effect of increasing the representation of people who vote anything other than Lib or Con.
Why would the current government do electoral reform years (and two elections) after failing to deliver on the promise that "2015 will be the last federal election under first-past-the-post"?
Plus public opinion of Trudeau is so poisoned that, at this point, his supporting of electoral reform would likely just make it even more unpopular amongst the electorate.
I think that illustrates part of the difficulty faced by the calls for changing the electoral system. There are multiple other systems, each with their positives and negatives. Determining which is the "best" one to use is not a straightforward process.
There will be shouts of unfairness from multiple factions no matter which would be ultimately chosen.
