I would like to give my support to the New Zealand model of proportional representation (Mixed Member Proportional, MMP).  I think this is the best way to give all British Columbians a say in who represents them in parliament. 

In the past I have voted NDP but in the last election I voted Green bcause I felt let down by the NDP.  It was with enormous frustration that because of our existing form of electing our representatives to parliament, the Greens did not get even one seat although they received 13% of the vote.

I look forward to the Citizens' Assembly helping to create a positive alternative with MMP.
