We lost the referendum because the populace wasn't informed. I would hardly consider it a "rejection", as the media is saying. There is a chance we will have another referendum, especially if we continue to plug away and further polling indicates a higher level of support for the system. Either way, I don't think the low chance of having another referendum justifies recycling $1500 worth of signs.

Do you think that will happen again within our lifetimes and if so, how can we be sure it will be MMP that's proposed with it's controversial elected/"unelected"/appointed etc. etc. list members without geographic constituencies rigmarole. I would hope for pure PR with open lists.

<div>Howdy Folks<br>I shall pickup all the signs that I distributed. Are they recyclable (I hope so) and is there a place to drop them for such a purpose? Does anybody know? If not, I will call Waterloo Region Waste Management to get info on hopefully getting them recycled. I hope that they don't end up going to China.
