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 After allowing for blanks, duplications and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who sent them, the real total is 1,603.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. 

To help you navigate through the 1,603 submissions received from the public, here are:
  1. An introduction to the submissions, available as a Word document (40KB) or as a PDF document (110KB).
  2. A link to the View Submissions page, where you can read and/or search 1,603 submissions
  3. A complete list of the submissions and their abstracts, available as an Excel spreadsheet (472KB) or as a PDF (348KB)
  4. A guide to the longer submissions (i.e., 80 submissions that run four or more pages in length). This guide is available as a Word document (36KB) or as a PDF file (96KB).
  5. A list of the 80 longer submissions, indexed by electoral system and including abstracts. This list is available as an Excel spreadsheet (40KB) or as a PDF item (90KB).

POWELL-1360

BC must adopt some kind of proportional representation [PR]. Whether it is a mixed system like in Germany or full proportional system like in most of Europe doesn't really matter. Simply put, our current system is broken beyond repair. [3 pages]

JAMES-1359

A stay in the UK convinced me that some similar form of mixed member or additional member proportional system would be best for British Columbia and I hope that the Citizens' Assembly will recommend in favour of such. [1 page]

FOOTE-1357

I am opposed to Nick Loenen's Preferential-Plus. I would rather see us stay with the same old broken system then allow this scary system in. We need electoral reform that will hold politicians accountable. [1 page]

KOCIB-1356

In my view our current electoral system is good enough to register correctly and fairly the mood and political inclination of our citizens. I am oposing any attempts to change the present voting procedure to the concept of PR. [1 page]
