Well, I guess the NDP do win seats sometimes. What about the Liberal and Conservative MPs who did vote for this bill? Would you vote for them, or are they too tainted by the parties they are affiliated with?

When did it even come to a vote? My understanding is they just glossed over entirely.

I'm leaning towards NDP over the others, but depends what they promise closer to the election.

All I'm saying is the Libs will never gain my vote for election reform. They may win my vote in other ways, but not that way.

Wow, even if the Liberal MP in question voted for this bill? I could understand that though.

[โ€“] Rediphile@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Which bill? There was no bill.

[โ€“] etuomaala@sopuli.xyz 1 points 9 months ago

er... what, did they call it a motion? The thing they just voted on. To form a Citizen's Assembly on Electoral Reform. Some Libs and Tories actually did vote for it. In fact, my MP, Ben Lobb (Con), voted for it. Good for that guy. I am actually considering voting for him next election because of this, even though I really don't agree with the rest of the Conservatives.
