If Canada joins the EU, Canadian representatives to the European Parliament would need to be elected via proportional representation, it's part of the requirements. (en.wikipedia.org)

There is no uniform voting system for the election of [Members of the European Parliament]; rather, each member state is free to choose its own system, subject to certain restrictions:

You had me at proportional representation, however I fear we are more likely to form the CANZUK. I doubt it would have proportional representation and we would probably still be stuck with the crown on our money. I was a fan of joining the EU just to get people off of our money but not their colouring scheme, proportional representation would be great.

I am most definitely not a fan of adopting the US money as some have suggested before because it all has dead white guys on their money.

New Zealand has proportional representation.
