Fair Vote Canada National Day of Action for Electoral Reform

May 14 2011 - 2:00pm

Location

Various
Canada
See map: Google Maps

Only 40 percent of Canadians supported our government in the May 2 election, and yet we wound up with a Conservative majority. The fact that Stephen Harper now controls Parliament after gaining only 1.8 percent more of the popular vote than in 2008 is a testament to the arbitrary and antiquated nature of Canada’s Parliamentary system.

We need an electoral process in which everybody’s vote counts. We need a government that represents us.
