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 After allowing for blanks, duplications and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who sent them, the real total is 1,603.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

HUTCHINS-1491

I would like to state my strong support for electoral reform that will establish a responsive, representative legislature.  My preference is for Mixed Member Proportional representation [MMP], with an open party list. [1 page]

OCKLEY-1490

I think some sort of Mixed Member Proportional (New Zealand) [MMP] system makes by far the most sense for British Columbia. [1 page]

HODGE-1487

It is my heartfelt hope that your Assembly will recommend switching to MMP. I doubt if a system could be devised that would run faultlessly, but MMP would surely more fairly reflect the overall wishes of the BC electorate. [2 pages]
