<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am writing to you concerning a coming motion in Parliament
to “concur” with the Report of the Electoral Reform (ER) Committee.
Traditionally such a vote has always been a free vote.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Voting to concur will allow the subject of ER to regain
Parliamentary attention. 88% of the contributors to the ER process recommended
Proportional Representation (PR) as <span>Canada</span>’s
new means of choosing its MPs.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am asking you to vote your conscience and recommend that
the report be accepted.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just two short years ago the Liberal Party was in third
place demonstrating that our fickle First Past the Post (FPTP) system is
unstable and subject to emotional mood swings of the electorate. This causes
many problems such as the Policy Pendulum, strategic voting, discouraged and
disenfranchised voters, lack of long term planning etc. <span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With the growing danger of Trumpism spreading to <span>Canada</span>
as evidenced in the platforms of several Conservative leadership candidates, we
need to protect our country by introducing coalition government which is an
almost guaranteed outcome of PR.<span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yours Truly,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Donald A Fraser<span></span></p>
