Most want change

-

B.C. Liberal leader Andrew Wilkinson is right about one thing — political decisions should not be made by minorities.

That is why many people want to change our electoral system — to put an end to those fake-majority government­s representi­ng a minority of the people and making decisions without consensus and consultati­on.

A majority vote is 50 per cent plus one of the ballots cast. That is a democratic vote anywhere in the world and that is what will decide whether we change our electoral system.

Wilkinson does not want democracy. He does not want to have to consult anybody. He wants undisputed control, just like former prime minister Stephen Harper and current Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
