It doesn’t matter WHO has the 39%.
What matters is that if 60% of Canadians don’t have representation in Parliament, we have a pretty poor Representative Democracy. But it doesn’t have to be that way. More than 90 countries around the world have adopted some form of Proportional Representation, some more than a century ago.
Call your MP and make sure they know you expect them to vote to accept the ERRE Committee’s report on May 31, 2017, so the process continues.
Trans-Mountain pipeline foes to walk to Burnaby from Victoria:
Opponents of the Trans-Mountain pipeline expansion project will march from Victoria to Burnaby, beginning today.
Walk 4 the Salish Sea is a four-day, 75-kilometre walk from Mile Zero in Victoria to the Kinder Morgan terminal in Burnaby.
Organizer Bobby Arbess said participants want to show their support for the ecological values of the Salish Sea and solidarity with First Nations who have launched a legal challenge against the project.
“We’re doing the walk because we are committed to preventing the environmental destruction and violation of indigenous rights that we believe will ensue from the prime minister’s approval of the Kinder Morgan pipeline expansion project,” he said.
Walkers are fundraising to support the Pull Together Campaign for the legal defence of the Coldwater, Tselil-waututh and Squamish nations, which have filed lawsuits to stop the pipeline.
Members of the team have already raised about $18,000, Arbess said.
Anyone is invited to join all or part of the walk. About 100 people have committed to the full walk, Arbess said.
82% of Kitchener Centre supports Proportional Representation.
