Sent a letter to the Editor at the Times Colonist. When the Leg resumes this fall, all members of all parties should do the right thing and make the first Bill be to change our system of voting to Proportional Representation.

BC is in desperate need of Proportional Representation to provide some stability and sanity for voters and politicians alike.
Let people find their voice and let people represent them!

The majority of experts who testified at the ERRE committee gave evidence that proportional representation was the best option for meeting the committee's goals. No one disputed this. That was the consensus. Further, prior to the committee meetings, the members had meetings with Canadians across the country. Most Canadians that the committee members met with cited PR as their preference for electoral reform.
The Liberal members of the committee, however, ignored the evidence and, in the end, chose to inexplicably advocate for Alternative Vote (which, besides a different ballot, is basically the same as FPTP, in that it is a single member riding winner-take-all system --> winner take all is the problem). This led to Maryam Monsef's idiotic ridicule of the Gallagher Index. Ignoring evidence and ridiculing science is often seen with right wing parties. Under no circumstances should either the GPC or the NDP partake in such nonsense.

Ontario PR supporters: here is a concrete action.
If you support proportional representation and are eligible to join the Ontario Liberal Party, join through the official OLP page:
https://action.ontarioliberal.ca/f/join
Then contact EVERY leadership candidate. Tell them you joined and that support for PR and cross-party cooperation will influence your leadership vote.

[email protected]Candidate positions are still evolving. That makes now the time to push.
A quiet supporter is easy to overlook. An organized bloc of new members writing every campaign is not.
