It was good to be home.

Thank you to my Burnaby family for making our BC regional campaign office launch SO special.

The image is an infographic titled "The Liberal's Broken Promise: Electoral Reform" that displays a vertical timeline with colored dots and information boxes chronicling electoral reform events in Canada.

The timeline shows six key events:

1. June 2015 (pink dot): Campaign Promise - Justin Trudeau pledges: "We are committed to ensuring the 2015 election will be the last election using first-past-the-post."

2. October 2015 (blue dot): Election Victory - Liberals win a majority government with 39.5% of the popular vote, securing 184 seats (54% of the House of Commons).

3. June 2016 (light blue dot): Special Committee Created - The Electoral Reform Committee (ERRE) is established to study options. The committee conducts consultations across Canada.

4. December 2016 (red dot): Committee Recommendations - The ERRE recommends proportional representation. 88% of electoral experts consulted favoured proportional representation.

5. February 2017 (blue dot): Promise Abandoned - PM Trudeau abandons electoral reform, claiming "no consensus" despite clear committee recommendations and public consultations.

6. October 2024 (black dot): Looking Back - Trudeau admits he should have "immediately shut down talk about proportional representation" and that Liberals were "deliberately vague."

Below the timeline is a "Key Statistics" box showing:

• 63% of voters cast ballots for parties promising electoral reform
• 80% of town hall participants asked for proportional representation
• 71% wanted parties to govern together

The infographic includes a Creative Commons license icon in the bottom left corner and a QR code in the bottom right. The footer cites sources: House of Commons Special Committee on Electoral Reform, Fair Vote Canada, Policy Options.

New Democrats will always show up for you—just as you've shown up for us.

New Democrats secured dental care, pharmacare, anti-scab legislation, and more because what we're all about: delivering programs that change people's lives.

And Jagmeet is ready to fight for more.

The far-right hijacked the GOP and gained power in the U.S. thanks to first-past-the-post.

Proportional representation prevents hostile takeovers—no group gets outsized influence without real voter support.

Pierre Poilievre once said politicians shouldn’t stay in office for life. That was 1999. It’s 2025—he’s still here, with the same angry rhetoric and no results. Now he wants to kill public media and silence journalists. What’s he so afraid of? #SaveTheCBC #CdnPoli #Canada

"Politics should not be a lifelong career, and elected officials should not be allowed to fix themselves in the halls of power of a nation... Therefore, I would institute a limit of two terms for members of Parliament" - Pierre Poilievre 1990

There are over a hundred Green parties around the world, but the only country in which they’ve ever held actual power is Germany. Still, it’s never wise to write the Greens off entirely, notes @arnokopecky.bsky.social. thewalrus.ca/the-withering-of...

While Trump threatens health care, Canadian provinces are stepping up to bring in US doctors and nurses.

Doctors from overseas should be allowed to work from coast-to-coast-to coast. The NDP is focused on expanding health care for all Canadians—because everyone deserves care, not chaos.

More New Democrats in Ottawa means YOU are better off.

With 25 of us, we fought for the biggest expansion of health care in a generation. We brought you dental care and pharma care.

These are concrete things that improve people’s lives.

If you elect New Democrats, we will fight every day for you.

Lt. Gov. McIntyre Speaks On Volunteering

Carol Baldwin

2025-03-28

On Thursday, March 20, Tourism Saskatchewan hosted a webinar, Strategies for Recruiting and Retaining Great Volunteers, featuring Saskatchewan’s Lieutenant Governor, Bernadette McIntyre, a seasoned expert in volunteering. McIntyre shared her insights into how she has brought volunteers together to run the many large events she has coordinated over the years. Growing up in a small community, her parents were always involved in the community, helping out at the curling rink, the skating rink, the ball diamonds, or the church, and so volunteering has always been a way of life for her. Although she spoke primarily about volunteers for events, many of the same principles can benefit community organizations looking to build their volunteer ranks.
