Letter to the Globe, December 16

Sirs,
The headline on Lysiane Gagnon's column on the French elections (Dec 16, 2015) claims "a victory for moderation".
However, had the French used our electoral system, we'd now all be talking about the French extreme right winning a massive victory, taking advantage of their "win" to press forward with their xenophobic, anti-European-values platform.
But they don't share our ridiculous system, so instead the majority wins, and the French deliver a firm rejection of this party and those values.
Surely this implies some useful advice to Canadian voters!
Sincerely,
