Islanders for PR

Islanders for Proportional Representation advocates for a fair voting system for Provincial Elections on PEI.

[Islanders for PR @islanders4pr]

With PEI's broken election system, Islanders don't get what they vote for. If they did, the circles in this video would match.

Instead we get "clean-sweep" inflated majorities with almost no opposition MLA's elected to hold government accountable.

Islanders for PR made a budget submission, asking the government to provide money in the budget for a Citizens' Assembly as called for in Motion 71, which passed on Oct 17, '21. We're asking our supporters to let their MLAs know --this is important and they want to see it funded!

And here's my very own card for @JustinTrudeau . I'm urging him not to make the same mistake his father did: wait too long to decide that #ProportionalRepresentation is necessary for the federal gov't to speak in the name of the nation. #MakeYourVoiceHeard @DLeBlancNB #cdnpoli

@Nahanni_ @OhSheri1 @dreamitnowdoit @trapdinawrpool That was last election, this election there were 50.95% voters that didn't elect anyone.

#elxn43 Much hand wringing among @CBCNews pundits about Liberals not having a single MP to represent Alberta in government.
Only @acoyne states the obvious: this destructive regional divisiveness in parliament is a function of our deeply dysfunctional FPTP electoral system.

[Islanders for PR @islanders4pr]

With PR all of the parties (except the Bloc) would have representation in all of the provinces and our parliament would reflect our true political diversity.

[Fair Vote Canada 🗳 🇨🇦 @FairVoteCanada]

Canada’s new HoC makes the country look far more divided than it really is & no party can be satisfied. Our skewed voting system has, incredibly, given LPC 34 more seats than the CPC despite the CPC getting 1.5% more votes than the LPC.

Exactly!

[Fair Vote Canada 🗳 🇨🇦 @FairVoteCanada]

The broken promise on #electoralreform is coming up at debate after debate. Often anyone who asks about #proportionalrepresentation gets a big round of applause.
The "no consensus" excuse isn't being bought by voters.
