The present system of voting is an insult to the democratic
process. It is my firm belief, after much reading and contemplation
of existing systems that the so-called MMP (mixed member
proportional) system as now practiced by the government of New
Zealand would provide a vastly improved manifestation of real
democracy in this province. I would therefore like to support this
option for consideration at the referendum to be held a
year from now. It is time for a truly representative and fair style
of voting to be instituted in this province to encourage maximum
participation by the voting public. Thank you for this opportunity
to offer input.
