Your system is much more Third Party friendly, but still "winner take all" like ours. You can have a party in power that 66% of the electorate didn't vote for. That is interesting... You don't do the "coalition government" thing up there?
It's also less democratic since the people don't pick the PM directly. Canada is a more advanced country than the US, so it works, even if it's imperfect.
