Tell Minister Monsef what you really think: #ChoosePR

Citizens are making use of their mydemocracy.ca postcards to send a simple but important message back to the Minister of Democratic Institutions: we want proportional representation.

Sign the petition: We need to work together to build a better democracy

It’s time to replace our current system with mixed member proportional representation in time for the 2019 Federal election.

Our election system is unfair. But we can make it better!

Mixed Member Proportional Representation (MMP) is a much fairer way to elect governments than the way we do it now. Voters want every vote to count, but they also want an MP who has a personal connection to their riding. With MMP you get the best of both worlds: one ballot, two votes.
