Hello Everyone,
This Thursday night, March 28th, the FVC-Toronto chapter is hosting a talk
on the connection between voting systems & inequality with Dr. David
Hulchanski. I am interesting in going to the talk & if anyone else would
like to attend, we could car pool. I am happy to do the driving. Bellow
is the announcement from FVC-To.
*1. Does our voting system have anything to do with Canada's growing
inequality?*
*David Hulchanski* noted speaker* *and a long time supporter of *proportional
representation*, will help us connect the dots between Canada's growing
income gap and our voting system.
In Canada we are only scarcely aware how our *Winner-take-all* voting
system has permeated every aspect of our lives. Other countries do
democracy differently and it shows.
