[fvc-wat-disc] [fvc-wat-announce] Volunteers needed! Can you help Fair Vote at the Multicultural Festival June 24 and 25?

[Paul Schellenberg]

To Whom It May Concern:
	I have been lobbying for electoral reform for more than 15 years. It is extremely disappointing to me that our system of governance completely disregards the majority of votes cast in our general elections. (I only have evidence of this for the 2022 Ontario Provincial election. See the attached essay.)



Given this fact, is it any surprise that voter turn-out continues to decline? 

Just another voice crying out for a more just democracy,
