BC citizens have a very important decision coming up this fall; to change or not to change our provincial voting system. A pivotal decision from my perspective.
As I have listened to people and read different people’s Facebook posts it seems that one positive reason to vote yes is that more people’s votes will have a say. I have trouble understanding this because with our present provincial legislature we have three people basically running the show.

If the NDP want anything passed, the Greens need to vote in favour. So do we want several small groups holding their vote out for the highest bidder? How many backroom deals will occur and to whose expense?
