SUBMISSIONS FROM THE PUBLIC
Members of the public sent to the Assembly a total of
1,603 public submissions during the 13 months ended 27
September 2004. And you can access them all lower down on this
page.
Incidentally, the numbers on the submissions appear to show that
there are 1,669 of them. After allowing for blanks, duplications
and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who
sent them, the real total is 1,603. Unfortunately, we cannot
renumber the submissions to reflect that.
If a posted submission is dated after 27 September, that date
refers to the date the submission was processed and posted to the
website, not the date it was received.

the public, here are:

I really would like to see a MMP [Mixed Member
Proportional] electoral system in BC, and later in the
rest of Canada. Every person's vote wil count and we would see a
better governement. [1 page]

Please ignore the Single transferable vote [STV] system, as it
will take forever to count the votes. The MMP system can be
instituted without great problems. If the idea is to scuttle the
whole process you will answer to the voters. [1 page]

I want to see some form of proportional representation
[PR]. As a voter, I believe proportional representation
would allow me to vote according to my convictions instead of
choosing "the lesser of evils". [1 page]
