Submission Content
I heartily agree that our election process needs to be amended, for someone to win so much power with so little favour from most people is just wrong. However, I would like to encourage you to support and promote the systems that benefit the majority of the people, not a small minority who have shown a willingness to sell off public assets and promote the loss of Canada via integration with the US.'

That a small percentage can rule the country is what the elite are striving for right now (as seen by the recent changes in our laws, including the strong arming via trade agreements), but I ask you to please allow Canada, and especially BC, to retain it's prominent place in the world as a Country where average people are treated fairly. Please promote the more fair systems, and not Single transferable vote (STV), which only benefits a few.

I myself would prefer Mixed member proportional representation (MMP).

Thank you for your time.
