There are many ways everyday people can be disruptive to force the liberals to do the right thing and to have more than 40 liberals vote in favour of electoral reform.
Many things by protesting on the streets, writing to our MPs, educating our neighbours, pushing for pr in the Yukon, holding general strikes and by continuing to bring up the topic for example.
