Hi Mary,
This week the Broadbent Institute released a report
<http://www.broadbentinstitute.ca/electoral_system_for_all_bc?e=239f53a51a316c66348aa91d2042d4c0&utm_source=broadbent&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=sep21_18md_pr&n=1><http://www.broadbentinstitute.ca/electoral_system_for_all_bc?e=239f53a51a316c66348aa91d2042d4c0&utm_source=broadbent&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=sep21_18md_pr&n=2>by
David Moscrop, Megan Dias, and Chuka Ejeckamtitled An Electoral System
for All

The report is about the many benefits of proportional representation, a
voting system that makes every vote count.
B.C. hasn’t updated its voting system in 65 years. First-Past-The-Post
is outdated and divisive. This October, British Columbians have an
opportunity to lead the rest of Canada; the opportunity to vote for pro
rep, a system that is more representative and fair. Eighty five per cent
of OECD countries use some form of proportional representation, and
Canada is not yet one of them. Learn more in our report

Our report is a great resource for supporters of pro rep
<http://www.broadbentinstitute.ca/electoral_system_for_all_bc?e=239f53a51a316c66348aa91d2042d4c0&utm_source=broadbent&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=sep21_18md_pr&n=7>.
It covers everything from what’s wrong with our current system to what
pro rep is and why it’s fair, inclusive and engaging.
I’d encourage you to forward this email to your networks and share the
link to our report

Twitter using #BCpoli, #prorep and #pr4bc. Let’s spread it far and wide.
Thanks,
Maria
