Imagine a voting system where 40 to 75 per cent of the votes are wasted. That's what we have now with FPTP. With Proportional Representation, every vote counts! https://t.co/fkC0B9K15J @YesPRBC@fairvotebc@youth4pr#bcpoli#pr4bc
Proportional representation is a better way of electing governments, because it encourages hope and hard work, and emphasizes not so much winning elections as finding solutions. #PR4BC#bcpoli https://t.co/sskf3avCch
Hey #PR4BC - this #FF is a good chance to follow @youth4pr. We need to engage young people in politics, and that starts with making sure their voices are heard in this referendum. #bcpoli#proportionalrepresentation
The battle over proportional representation in BC is a battle between the insiders - the same old folks - and those of us who want to open up our politics to be more inclusive.
Thank you to the 88 THOUSAND+ of you that participated in the BC Government's #howwevote consultation on #PR4BC.

@RuckertGisela@FraserInstitute We support a two-part question: should province change voting system? And, if so, what should that new system be? We're focused on this referendum for the time being as there is no indication there will be a second.

@NaomiDevine Two-part question has been used to get consensus outcome in favour of Proportional Representation. The FI study is heavily based on the New Zealand example (where they use a form of PR). In this case, the Fraser Institute's recommendation is good for voter choice and for PR.
Today the BC Government closes its consultation period for #PR4BC. Can you help start the YES campaign off with a bang with a $5 donation? #bcpoli https://t.co/uhdXL3wQ4w
I forgot to tweet this. Bill Tieleman argues union and corporate donations should totally be allowed for the upcoming electoral reform referendum #bcpoli https://t.co/KOt7ApnqfK
Listen: @JeanCrowder and @paulsummerville prosecute the case against first past the post on @Adam_Stirling's show and @cfax1070 listeners agree. Excellent start to the YES #PR4BC campaign. #bcpoli https://t.co/dEul0q4Bkz
I'm using @YesPRBC's recommendations as my blueprint for responding to the BC Govt's online #electoralreform questionnaire. Here's the link to the govt's site https://t.co/FxDvtOTevx #bcpoli#vancouverbc#victoriabc#PR4BC https://t.co/61DSABaTVd
#Vancouver Police are responding to the area of Renfrew/Hastings for reports of a cougar in a tree. The reported animal was located and found to be a very large raccoon.
