All the downvotes I got for saying he was a terrible choice... and here we go.
This is what AOC meant when talking about how in other countries she wouldn't be in the 'same party' as many other Democrats. They'd have their smaller 'progressive party' and then they'd form a coalition with the "Moderate/Center Dem Party' and that would be a power structure.
Which kinda happened behind the scenes to help Pelosi secure the leadership previously when there were enough Progressive votes to block her.
Same as the GOP you wouldn't have everyone under the same umbrella... but America is and will likely continue to remain for a long time a two-party system because it's become far too established and financially secure in that model. >

While the money is a big part of it, the two party system is caused by our electoral system. "First past the post" style voting (like the US has, where you win 50.1% of the vote you win everything) discourages the creation of smaller, niche parties in favor of having just two opposing parties (think about it, if you have a party that is supported by 20% of all voters you will likely never be able win by yourself, but join forces with another party that has 30% support and you kinda agree on things and boom, you've got a chance).
In order to get rid of the two-party system we need to completely overhaul our electoral system. And there's basically no chance of that because the current electoral system is REALLY good at catering to the established powers and their money >

I don't think this is true, at least not fully. Canada is First Past the Post and we have many parties as well. There's some other part of the electoral system that seems to break the US into a two party system, but it's not just First Past the Post. >

Oh, there's definitely more minutia to it, but it's more true than I think you realize. 
A quick glance through some information on your House of Commons reveals that over 80% of the seats belong to just two parties (Lib and CPC). There are 3 other parties (plus a couple independents), true, however one of those parties doesn't have enough representation to be recognized for legislative purposes (just quoting what I read, idk if that's functionally meaningful), and one of the other parties (NDP) is just Lib but further left (again, I'm basing this on pretty quick searches, so please feel free to correct me if I'm totally off base). So, from the outsider's perspective it seems like you only really have a choice between left, Left, right, and Quebec. I'm not sure I would call it many parties, but it's definitely more than are in the US government.
It's worth mentioning that the US does actually have more than two parties that appear on our ballots. Democrat and Republican are the only two that generally matter, being so significantly bigger than the others, but very occasionally a Libertarian or Green Party candidate will manage to get elected
Edit: to add context, I wanted to show the number of parties in some countries that don't do first past the post (for 10 or more seats, I'm only counting House of Commons/Representatives equivalent):

Spain: 17 parties (6 with 10 or more seats)
UK: 11 parties (4 with 10 or more seats)
Netherlands: 21 parties (4 with 10 or more seats)
Italy: 31 parties (6 with 10 or more seats)
