2012 Person: 'So the NDP formed government in 2015 right?'
How would you explain the last decade of politics to someone in 2012?
What matters most to the people of Victoria? Here’s the result of the 2022 budget survey by age. Housing affordability the top priority for people aged 14-44. It’s good governance for people 55+. #yyj
BREAKING - A group of young Canadians have filed a court challenge to lower the voting age to 16. Section 3 of the Charter guarantees the right to vote to "every citizen of Canada". #cdnpoli #16Vote @Vote16Canada @vote16bc cbc.ca/news/politics/…
Want to get up to speed on the basics of the campaign for #ProportionalRepresentation? What is it? Why do we need it? How would PR make a difference? Join us for a webinar on Oct. 24! Register here: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
"Lowering the voting age to 16 would be a lifeline for our democratic institutions, & a remarkable legacy maker for @JustinTrudeau. ... Young people have the most stake in political issues, but often, the fewest means to make systemic change." @SenMarilou thestar.com/opinion/contri…
💥NEW💥 "Lowering the voting age to 16 could save our democracy and shape Justin Trudeau’s legacy" In today's @TorontoStar, by @VoteFutureMajor's Aaron Myran & Camellia Wong #Vote16 thestar.com/opinion/contri…
BREAKING: As negotiations continue in Germany, to form a collaborative three-party government, it looks like they've agreed to lower the voting age to 16! When will Canada catch up, on this fast-growing global reform? #Vote16 euronews.com/2021/10/16/us-…
Very excited to see @StevenDelDuca's promise to allow municipalities to use ranked ballots for municipal elections. But his proposal to use ranked ballots for provincial elections is misguided, half-baked & misinformed. I strongly urge @ontario_liberal to re-consider this move.
NEW: @StevenDelDuca promises sweeping electoral reform — including ranked ballots — if @OntLiberal win June 2 election. Says he will quit if he fails to deliver that in the first term. #onpoli #topoli thestar.com/content/thesta…
.@KenSimCity is promising a "split ward system" if he becomes Mayor of Vancouver next year. He says half the city's councillors would be elected in five regions of the city, and half (plus the mayor) elected at-large. @ABetterCityVan #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/mayo… 1/
"@WACommAlliance argued for proportional representation. Instead of single winner-takes-all districts... we could have a smaller number of multi-winner districts... making it possible for communities that don’t constitute a majority to still elect a candidate."
With #ProportionalRepresentation in multi-member districts, gerrymandering becomes a LOT more difficult. Read more @Crosscut bit.ly/3oBhpSO
If your only come back to 70% voting against the winning party is "that's just how the system works", then the system needs to change. #Elxn44

Some of our incredible volunteers in action this weekend delivering @FairVoteCanada door hangers! Thanks so much to all our volunteers for your hard work raising awareness about proportional representation!
Let's demand electoral reform. #cdnpoli #Elxn44 youtu.be/lMZAM6t4b_Y
Check out, our co-leader, Renée's interview with @steeletalk about the significance of lowering the voting age and why it's a change that's important to the growth and recovery of B.C.! #bcpoli #vote16 #cdnpoli omny.fm/shows/steele-d…
Multi-winner #RankedChoiceVoting is the solution we need to end #gerrymandering and give all voters a real voice. 🗣 By picking winners on a proportional basis, cracking and packing of voters into unfair districts no longer works
❗Urgent: Tomorrow is a crucial vote. If you support local PR, please tell your mayor and councillors to support #LocalChoice at @LMLGA. ✅ Let's create fairer municipal elections in B.C. fairvotecanada.good.do/choice/local-c…
NEW: For twenty years, federal politicians from ALL federal parties have been trying to lower Canada's voting age to 16. Check out our brand new History of #Vote16 webpage! vote16canada.org/history-of-vot…
I strongly support this. Local governments are a great laboratory for democratic experimentation.
In Feb, #VanCouncil supported my call for #LocalChoice to improve representation in local elections: council.vancouver.ca/20210309/docum…. Next step: @LMLGA! Do you live in Metro-Van, the Fraser Valley or Squamish-Lillooet? Tell your leaders to support Resolution 5: fairvotecanada.good.do/choice/local-c…
This is a problem in BC municipal elections too.... But it doesn't have to be. 1/ #vanpoli #bcpoli #LocalChoice4BC
"There will be people watching this programme shouting at the television because - in England especially - we have no system that allows for any kind of proportionality." - @LaylaMoran There certainly are! #ChangeTheVotingSystem
