    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.

    If American #psyop propagandized #BC actually elects a #populist, #racist, faith based hate government we are truly in for a civil war on the West coast.

    I rarely believe the polls though, as modern polls are often rigged by Right Wing owned media to push their dream narrative.

    These #Populist Conservatives can’t see that the #MapleMAGA wave is breaking in the States and will soon break in #Canada.

    I’m done with the prospect of a divisive Conservative government destroying the culture we have built while forcing their Christian ideals on the rest of BC.

    If they manage to win by harnessing racial hate and anti lgbtq+ narratives, #BritishColumbia has truly chosen strife over peace, division over unity and populist hysteria over sanity.

    Those of us left will respond in kind. Eff these populist, hate driven politicians. Their day in the sun is done, we will not let their cancer of hate destroy our province.

    This isn’t about politics anymore, it’s about a culture war supported/created by #American interests, stoked by power hungry, desperate #Conservatives and supported by washed up former #Liberals helping them attain power.

    This is what happens when the BC Liberal (United) party just admits they are cosplay Conservatives and line up to stack the deck against the Left.

    We now NEED #ProportionalRepresentation or #RankedChoice voting to prevent an inevitable culture war, both Federally and Provincially.

    Without it we will continue to fight each other, in turn opening the door to American fascists who will exploit that divide they helped create to further shatter our country’s resolve.

    Stay strong BC, I still have hope in a better outcome but am preparing for the worst. Push back the hate or end up wallowing in it.

  17. It’s time for fair votes in English local govt

    In #English local #elections, #voting system means #councils don’t reflect how people actually #voted

    A small vote shift can completely change who is in control

    Right now, millions of local #votes don’t help shape the final result

    This leaves voters feeling powerless, because even when lots of people vote for change, final result can look nothing like the community itself

  18. @thetyee “You probably shouldn’t blame Idlout for wanting to leave the NDP. It’s tempting to join a real party, sort of like Pinocchio wanting to be a real boy.”

    What an offensive joke of an opinion piece. “Dr. Steve” should take his useless opinions and shove them.

    This is not funny, it’s infuriating. #TheTyee is slipping into an abyss publishing this partisan shite.

  19. #US politics in a nutshell.

    If #Americans want to prevent another #Trump, stop accepting the status quo and open your eyes to the two parties who hold control.

    They switch sides when it suits them:
    °Abolishment of #slavery

    They both support and fund #Genocide
    °#Isreal

    Pretending to be anti empire:
    °Illegal annexation of #Hawaii

    They claimed to support #democracy
    °Funded the #Pinochet dictatorship

    Demand change:
    °Multi party #coalitions
    °#ProportionalRepresentation
    °End political funding

  20. Ah, yet another utopian fantasy where proportional representation magically saves #democracy 🦄. Because clearly, the only thing standing between #Minnesotans and political nirvana is the size of their districts 📏. Why vote for people when you can just hand over control to party mascots? 🙃

  21. @DanFox @SeanYYZ Good analysis however the massive lack of engagement and low voter turnout would seem to imply a pervasive lack of trust in government and electoral process - that we're seeing at all levels - and would support the need for #ElectoralReform, the rejection of #FPTP, and the urgent need for the implementation of some form of #ProportionalRepresentation #Toronto #TOPoli #ONPoli #MunicipalElection
