[fvc-wat-announce] FVC releases poll that confirms Cdns. want PR

[Sharon Sommerville]

Good Evening FairVoting Friends,

Last week FairVote Canada released the results of a poll done by Strategic
Communications between April 22 - May 9th.  15, 806 people were surveyed in
20 Liberal ridings and the results confirm that there is a consensus in
support of proportion representation.

Closer to home, results from Kitchener Centre are clear; 82% of respondents
support proportional representation and 75% of respondents want Raj Saini
to advocate for PR in Parliament.

Here is the report from Strategic Communications:

Can you help spread the word that Kitchener Centre wants electoral reform?
Two posters that can be used on social media are attached.

On May 31st, Parliament will discuss and vote on an NDP motion to adopt the
recommendations of the electoral reform committee to move to a moderate
form of PR.   Tomorrow we will email you about a campaign to tell Liberal
MPs to keep their promise on electoral reform and vote in favour of the NDP
motion.

With thanks,
Sharon
