This kind of thing makes me upset:

(Also I think there was another party in 2019 because there's 25% seemingly missing)

That's hard to look at and people keep defending the first-past-the-post system.

I voted Trudeau for election reform but he screwed all of us by not following through.

He chose losing to Conservatives instead of losing to another left party that day, and I will never forgive him for that..

Conservative government does not repent Canada but we didn't fix it when we were promised it would be fixed. At least if we had implemented ranked voting, the Conservatives would likely never be in power again.
