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and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who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.

I favour MMP because it is likely to produce an
electoral system in which many parties can participate, where
voters have a wide range of choice, representation in government
reflects votes won, and election outcomes are less extreme. [2

I support a Mixed Member Proportional [MMP] representation
system for British Columbia because the current system does not
allow my view to be adequately represented in British Columbia
government. [1 page]

I prefer a mixed member proportional [MMP] electoral
system. I really like the idea that MLAs are then
forced to cooperate for the good of the province. [2
