Mark Carney’s position on electoral reform: “open”. However…
Only the Greens / NDP consistently support proportional representation.
I want proportional representation for Canada, but why would you expect an intelligent person to know everything? Most of us, intelligent or not, have a fairly narrow field of expertise.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now. It's not like election reform is part of his campaign platform
I don't, but I expect the Prime Minister designate to know about the issues facing our country, and I would expect anybody serious to easily support the principle that every vote should count.
It's honestly not a tall order.
There's far too much deference to the benefit of the doubt, when the Liberal's track record has shown everything suggesting they don't care about proportional representation. We should assume status quo until there is evidence to the contrary - of which there has been none.
Unless voters like you and me are willing to make it an election issue.
