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 After allowing for blanks, duplications and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who sent them, the real total is 1,603.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

ALEXANDER-1319

I feel mixed member proportional representation (MMP) is the best for British Columbia. With our diverse population this would ensure the fairest election of all parties. [1 page]

LASTMAN-1318

Condorcet elections have been used for public elections. The city of Marquette, Michigan, USA once used (and may still use, for all I know,) a Condorcet voting system known as Nanson's Method for the election of all city officials. [1 page]

GRIGNON-1317

My vote is for the MMP system. People want their vote to count.  More women would get elected, and environmental considerations and minority issues would always be considered in discussions in the legislature.  [1 page]

HUNTER-1315

I have been following and studying this topic over the past year and this is to confirm my strong support for the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) system, and strong opposition to the Single Transferable Vote (STV) approach. [1 page]
