I suggest a Mixed Member Proportional [MMP] type
system similar to that of New Zealand. I think British
Columbia should provide leadership in Canada in this kind of voting
system.
I think we should avoid at all costs a US type system
of two parties where no one without money and without an "in" with
the ruling parties can participate as candidates.
I think we could even go to a lottery type system where ordinary
people are randomly selected to spend two years as a Member of the
Legislative Assembly, they would probably do a better job than
professional politicians.
Thank you for your efforts on this endeavour, may you maintain your
center ground and balanced mind and really hear the citizens and
not bow down to pressure to preserve a system that will benefit the
current government. We need to be attending to life
seven generations into the future, not short-term gain.
