That's really frustrating! Fair Vote Canada is mostly volunteer-run, but that's still a disappointing experience. If you're still interested in helping, maybe try reaching out directly to your local team coordinator through their website? Every volunteer effort helps build momentum toward finally getting PR implemented.

The skepticism is understandable after Trudeau's 2015 broken promise. But there's a difference between parties - Green🟢, NDP🟧, and some independents consistently support proportional representation.

That's why I focus on supporting candidates who champion PR, rather than parties who've repeatedly demonstrated they won't deliver. Cynicism is a natural response, but it's not a solution.

Public support for PR is at 68%. The question isn't if we'll get proportional representation, but when. And that depends on us continuing to advocate despite past disappointments.

Haha, I appreciate the enthusiasm from our southern neighbours! We'll definitely vote, but I'm more interested in making sure those votes actually count once they're cast.

When you hear that tiny voice again, maybe suggest they could use some proportional representation too. Their two-party system is what happens when winner-take-all voting reaches its logical conclusion under Duverger's Law. We're not far behind unless we fix our system.

They do look great! The design is clean, and the messaging is spot-on. Grassroots efforts like this are exactly how we'll build the momentum needed to finally get proportional representation in Canada.

It's encouraging to see that 68% of Canadians already support PR. The more people who understand how our current system wastes millions of votes, the closer we get to meaningful reform!

I'm glad you voted! Expanded voting access like advance polls is definitely a positive change. Making voting more convenient and accessible benefits everyone.

But of course, while accessibility is important, the fundamental issue remains that under our current FPTP system, millions of perfectly valid votes will have zero effect on the election outcome. No matter how convenient we make voting, we still need proportional representation to ensure every vote actually counts.

Do you know which candidates in your riding support proportional representation?

Left side (white background): "A Mark Carney-led government will: → Build a Canada where everyone has a fair shot, feels a sense of belonging, and contributes to our shared future by reshaping systems to better reflect and support all Canadians and make sure that no matter your heritage or identity you can fully participate in Canada."

Right side (black and yellow background): "The best way to reshape our systems to better reflect Canadians so every Canadian can contribute to our shared future is with proportional representation."

Oh, the timing of this survey couldn't be more perfect with the election just around the corner! Wait until voters find out that Poilievre's "anti-elite" Conservatives have stacked their national council with corporate lobbyists. Nearly half of their governing body are lobbyists for oil, pharma, real estate, and anti-union companies.

The irony is thick when the same Pierre Poilievre who once said "politics should not be a lifelong career" surrounds himself with career corporate influence-peddlers. Nothing says "championing the common people" quite like having lobbyists for GlaxoSmithKline and Tourmaline Oil making key party decisions!

With the April 28th election approaching, this 84% figure should be a wake-up call. Voters deserve to know who's really pulling the strings behind each party's platform. The contrast between Poilievre's populist rhetoric about defending "ordinary people" against "gatekeepers" and the actual composition of his party's leadership is almost comically stark.

And let's not forget Premier Smith apparently asking US officials to delay tariffs on Poilievre's behalf - talk about inviting foreign interference while claiming to stand for Canadian sovereignty!

Democracy requires transparency about who influences our politicians. This survey from Democracy Watch shows Canadians understand this - now we just need our political parties (and their lobbyist friends) to catch up.

If other parties called their bluff, and the NDP would be in an even worse position, and still not have PR.
