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. nobcprorep.com British Columbia, Canada Joined June 2018

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. @colbycosh thechronicleherald.ca/opinion/nation…

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…

Proportional Representation at work in Israel : Benny Gantz join forces with indicted Prime Minister Netanyahu to become Speaker in back room deal; Gantz’s Blue & White coalition collapsing as result! @NoBCProRep #Cdnpoli #BCPoli

Major Israeli politics developments are underway right now. Benny Gantz, the opposition leader, appears to have made a deal with Netanyahu. His centrist Blue & White coalition looks about to break apart into those prepared to go into unity govt with Bibi and those opposed.

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: 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.) @nationalpost nationalpost.com/pmn/news-pmn/p…

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. @NoBCProRep @BillTieleman thetimes.co.uk/article/sinn-f…

Support for the populist-radical right is at highest level in 30 years, mostly under Proportional Representation - but not in FPTP United Kingdom! bloomberg.com/graphics/2017-… #BCPoli #NoBCProRep

"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/…

Have you heard? @ElectionsBC has extended the deadline for your mail-in ballot until December 7th. This is only to ensure any votes delayed by rotating strike action will reach them. You should STILL submit your ballot asap, and vote to KEEP #FirstPastthePost #noBCProRep #bcpoli
