The oligarchs won't benefit from a fairer voting system and until they will benefit from one i doubt we will see meaningful change. We've had leader in office for a decade who promised electoral reform and 0 progress has been made towards that promise.

Others have recomended a political party form strictly to win, implement electoral reform, then break up and call an election. That may be our best chance as current status quo parties obviously don't care.

At the very least, we must only vote for candidates that support proportional representation. Only the Greens/NDP consistently do that.
We need to keep growing the [email protected] movement. We do have evidence that the political establishment is catering to the fair vote movement, we just need to keep that up.
