Yes. If it is known that there is no chance (however unfair) that a preferred candidate will be elected, why would anyone knowingly make the choice that will certainly elect the candidate furthest from their political ideology?
Electoral reform is hindered by many things—including the constitution.

Being upset with the self-righteous 6% of people who, knowingly in most cases, caused the election of several MPs who espouse the antithesis of the belief systems of more than 50% - including themselves - is a completely reasonable response.

Our electoral system is broken, and yes I know it’s not the fault of NDP voters. But, if you know your car is broken, and you know it’s going to break down on you, do you drive it into a bad storm with your family inside? Or do you get a loaner until it’s fixed? #cdnpoli @fairvote.ca

Not what I said. Weird conclusion. JT made a promise he couldn’t keep, not one he didn’t want to keep. You can blame the British for inventing the Westminster parliamentary system if want. The issue isn’t why the system is broken, it’s idealists who can’t accept that it is.

I think so much better of Poilievre for conceding. I wasn't sure he would. Our democracy is strengthened by that.
