Electoral systems shape how power is exercised.
When governments need broad support to govern, conflict is more likely to be handled through negotiation and compromise instead of repression.
Proportional representation changes the incentives.

So interesting that The Ontario Science Centre’s roof withstood record snowfall in Toronto.
Seems like the only roof caving in is the one over the illusion that Doug Ford is for the people rather than the billionaires 🙃

Democracy works best when outcomes reflect how people actually voted.
Proportional representation does that and encourages cooperation instead of winner take all politics.
British Columbia has a real opportunity to move forward if leaders choose to act.

Hey Canada, this stuff is still happening here. These sorts of laws are how we end up like our neighbours to the south. The slow erosion of our freedoms and shifting more power to fewer people will not save us.
Coupled with Bill C-9, C-8, C-2 and C-12, all of this is just not sitting well 😖

Doug Ford’s Ontario Govt plan to ban bike lanes “is ripped from the business lobby’s wish list…Ford’s war on bikes is more than a vendetta—it’s a gift to corporate lobbyists.”
It’ll make Ontario’s cities weaker, less competitive, more polluted, & more dangerous for everyone. AND the traffic worse.
