I prefer ranked choice as PR further cements party politics which are a big reason for our current problems. That said. Please let's get PR because it would be infinitely better than what we've got now
Ranked choice is what’s best for the liberals not for Canada.
The Citizens assemblies have chosen proportional representation the most and research has shown that pr is more effective on government action and the system represents 95% of the vote.
The liberals are in no current position to make demands, they must compromise with the smaller parties,independents and disgruntled conservatives in order to get electoral reform done to fulfil the 2015 promise.
What do you mean by this? Every election represents 100% of the vote.
That’s false as the votes for parties other than the big 2 in the riding are wasted. First-past-the-post often has parties winning all the power with 40% of the vote.
That's not what you said the first time, which is why I asked for clarification. Maybe you meant, "the system represents 95% of the voters" because the votes are all totaled therefore represented? I was wondering if you were implying that some votes don't count in the current system.
I think he means 95% of the votes result in representation in Parliament.
