Fair Vote Canada is a non-partisan non-profit organization advocating for a citizen’s assembly on electoral reform in Canada and its provinces. Fair Vote Toronto is one of many chapters across the country, which helps the organization lobby local politicians and mobilize at the grassroots level. We believe that every vote should count equally, everyone should get the representation they vote for, and that Parliament and Legislature should be an accurate reflection of people’s values.
We wish to acknowledge that this land on which we’re located has, for thousands of years, been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the
Haudenosaunee, and the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, Toronto is home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to them for the opportunity to work on this land.
In the interest of our shared values of freedom, fairness and cooperation, we would like to declare our support for Proportional Representation. Abandoning the winner-takes-all mentality of our current voting system is the first and most important step in achieving our goals as it would allow every Canadian to make their voice heard and ensure politicians prioritize what Canadians care about.
