its also an indictment of the decline in public service #broadcasting that #STV (which used to be a European leader in #BroadcastEngineering as recently as the late 1990s/early 2000s) could only release a vertical #YouTube video and not even show the televisor in full action..
And whichever petition gets the most votes, put a bill in Parliament, pass it, task Elections Canada to retool the fucking electoral system.
Or, more expensively, have a national referendum ballot.
35 years ago I was part of 1 of hundreds of town hall or living room meetings for the Citizens' Forum on Canada's Future. Let's do it again!

3 July 2024: 1 day until a UK General Election (we got lucky!)
That's it folks! Tomorrow is the day. Lets begin to make our country a better one. After tomorrow hopefully we can show America it's possible to get rid of the grifters. After tomorrow we need to work towards Proportional Representation, so those who follow on know they are more accountable.

And multi-winner PR can take more of the guess work out of VRA compliance, break up current racial voting blocs, and ensure that parties have to negotiate with each other to build heterogenous coalitions in the legislative process. Even if it has to happen through #STV/multi-winner #RCV (like for the Australian Senate) or #MMR, I’d rather have either than keep the single-winner districts.
@schlauschlau Yeah :) Ich hatte auch bemerkt, dass ich ein paar #STV verpasst hatte :)
