Canada isn’t nearly doing enough to address climate change and it’s time Canadians have at least 7 choices in each riding instead of 2. We deserve accountability.
Because it allows the establishment figure heads and corporate media to fear monger people into staying with first-past-the-post when in reality proportional representation is simpler as it represents the popular share of mps by vote percentage. PR would fix the current polarization in our politics.
I’d actually lean towards the opposite for similar reasons. I think it’d be hard to get the current politicians to implement proportional representation without a referendum. The current system benefits them. Having a (successful) referendum would give the issue momentum that can keep it going through bureaucratic & political obstacles.
Proportional representation without a referendum is the best way for parliament to do what’s necessary to fight against climate change.
Louder for those in the back!

Yup, I’m done with arguing with bad faith Pierre Poilievre conservatives and corporate liberals about it.
Unfortunately, many of the largest contributors to climate change don’t even have parliaments
However that is for their people to focus on.

Why not have a referendum?
