No BC Proportional Representation

@nobcprorep

BC has democratically rejected Pro-Rep twice in favour of the stable & simple system that has served us well for 150 years. We're here to keep it that way.

"PR opponents are not claiming that PR will cause citizens to hold anti-immigrant or other extreme views [but] that PR legitimizes these views by giving them a greater number of seats and disproportionate influence over policy." Caroline Elliott vancouversun.com/opinion/op-ed/…

PR in action: Ireland “...a government will need 80 TDs to hold a majority. It is unlikely that any party will reach that number, so another coalition government is probable. The election uses proportional representation with a single transferrable vote.” bbc.com/news/world-eur…

PR in action: Ireland Forming govt after Saturday's election could be a "long and tortuous process" with the 3 leading parties close in # of seats. Govt policies will be chosen by the parties, not the voters. No BC Proportional Representation Bill Tieleman thetimes.co.uk/article/sinn-f…

PR in action: Israel The recent election, 3rd in a year, shows just how hard it can be to change leadership. Still no decision. PM Netanyahu still PM. 4th vote to follow? (Not an opinion on Netanyahu himself, that is for Israelis.) National Post nationalpost.com/pmn/news-pmn/p…

PR in action: South Africa Interesting comment re accountability: “A lack of accountability in politics is the cause of many of our current challenges. MPs owe their seats – and their salaries – to their political parties, not the S African voters.” city-press.news24.com/Voices/lindiwe…

PR in action: S Korea - Trying out a mixed member proportional & seeing various manipulations. At the same time, reminding us that elections, accountability & the democratic process must continue, even in times of great crisis. Keep well! english.hani.co.kr/arti/english_e…

Voters don’t support PR; last vote in BC was 61% against. The courts would be ill advised to get involved in this most political of issues. Colby Cosh thechronicleherald.ca/opinion/nation…
