Once again I strongly urge you to recommend MMP to the people of British Columbia. I am disturbed to learn that STV might be the system that is put to referendum because it will most certainly not be accepted by 60% of the voting public and we will be stuck with our current system for years and years to come. STV may be an improvement over the system we have now but if it is not accepted by the people due to its inherent complexities we will be no further ahead. What a shame it would be if the past year's work of the Citizens' Assembly was not able to improve the electoral system of this province. What an incredible waste of a once in a lifetime opportunity.
