Abstract
The Finnish regional list system of proportional representation could be considered for BC.  It ensures a large measure of proportionality coupled with regional equality. [1 page]

Submission Content
The Finnish system of electoral districts ensures both political proportionality and regional equality. The d'Hondt method, adopted in the electoral legislation reform of 1906, is used to elect members from regional lists.  This system should be considered for BC.

After an unexpected result in 1988 under the previous electoral college system for the President, the President is now elected by direct vote every 6 years.
