    PR never benefits the current government, so implementing it is very unlikely to ever happen despite how much better it would be.

      That is a defeatist attitude by someone who is against electoral reform.

      The powerful few cannot ignore a general strike in favour of PR to be passed without a referendum through multiparty support.

        I voted in favour last time, didn’t help because the government intentionally sabotaged it.

        There will never be a general strike over this issue, it’s not nearly problematic enough when 40% of people are still getting the party they voted for.

          You should be supportive of PR if you voted in favour and demand better from our establishment officials from BCNDP and BC Conservatives.

            You can be supportive of PR while also admitting what the current reality is

            I am supportive of universal income, taxing the 1% up the ying yang, and a whole lot of stuff that will likely never happen. Just because people admit the reality of something doesn’t beam they don’t support it.

              That’s what the powerful few want you to think
