Fair Vote Canada Fair Vote Canada is a national citizens' campaign for proportional representation. 30% of the vote should equal 30% of the seats. Make Every Vote Count!

Some Liberal MPs and cabinet ministers won't see #ProportionalRepresentation as top priority ever. . .

Hopefully most Liberal Party members will vote in favor of this resolution of the National Women's Liberal Commission.

Heard the Spanish PM lately? We expect our politicians not to compromise in opposition, because they're not in power. And as voters, we elect them to compromise on our behalf as professional politicians, so we don't need to compromise our principles when voting. We need #ProportionalRepresentation

#ProportionalRepresentation just requires repeal of a 1967 federal law:

The Fair Representation Act would do exactly that:

So, our Constitution *already* makes it possible to have a multi-party system.

ProRep fixes gerrymandering in the Ugly Gerry font via https://fontsarena.com/ugly-gerry/.

Here's why PR matters for California: it means politicians can't gerrymander communities apart! No more "packing and cracking" to dilute minority voting power.

Every community gets fair representation based on actual votes, not creative map-drawing.

And don't forget the ballot initiative process that can bypass both parties.

It's time we had more viable choices to choose from and representatives that really represented us. It's time we catch up to the rest of the world in modernizing our aging political system.
