@gordonmcdowell @chris

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.
