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 After allowing for blanks, duplications and those submissions that were later withdrawn by the people who sent them, the real total is 1,603.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

I would like to see the money taken out of elections. Let these people show up on our doorsteps and ask for our votes. I would also like to see governments removed from office as the result of an unkept promise. [1 page]

BRYAN-1420

When citizens do not feel represented, then they loose hope, initiative and the motivation to be involved in the political arena. As a 'youth' of today, I am strongly urging British Columbia to adopt an MMP voting system. [1 page]

FUGGER-1419

How can the four democratic values I list be applied to our society, so that we may properly call it a democracy?  The answer is to design a system to collect each individual's proposals and register their support or opposition. [2 pages]
