As an outsider well versed in Canadian politics (too well) I have to 
challenge that statement. The Canadian electoral system has a few big 
problems of  its own. For example Jan Steinman's Riding of N. Saanich 
and the Gulf Islands voted upwards of 70% center-left, left or far left 
and so who should represent him in parliament but a rather right wing 
conservative! A full 2/3 of the electorate voted for someone other than 
your current Prime Minister whereas Al Gore out polled Bush by a few 
100ths of a percent.

Clearly both of our systems leave much room for improvement.
