HEY CANADA.

MP Elizabeth May is sponsoring a petition to get Electoral Reform back in front of Parliament.

Could all of us who were utterly betrayed in 2016 when JT reneged on this please go put our electrons onto this one? yes, yes, the petitions don't mean a thing WILL happen, but there was already a good plan for this set out that got shelved. The longer we delay, the longer we risk what's happening in the US happening here.

I signed.

The current electoral system is obviously not working well. I look at the slow but steady improvements in #Australia since their electoral reform, and I am impressed. No, it was not a sudden miraculous shift to nirvana. There's still a lot of fighting.

But the stupidly bad politicians are, rightly, being pushed to the margins.

That's what I want. No matter who is backing this. I want the marginal-to-fringe ideologues to be recognized as marginal-to-fringe ideologues.
