Unless they commit (with teeth) to taking housing seriously and reforming the electoral system so this winner takes all bullshit never happens again (first past the post or whatever its called), a lot of people are going to have zero interest in anything they have left to say.
You might be interested in Nate Eskine-Smith.

He did an AMA on Reddit 2 days ago, and discussed proportional voting among other things.

He is my MPP. I’ve been very impressed with him. I’ve emailed him a few times voicing concerns, and each time he (or somebody from his staff) has addresses my emails, point by point, and have been very open to discussions. While i haven’t agreed with his stance on all points, i have very much appreciated the two way dialog, and the time that was taken to craft the responses (they were not short replies).
Technically he's your MP. An unfortunate problem with him running is that he's currently nobody's MPP, but considering the minivan problem you could say that about almost everybody involved in the Ontario Liberals.
