Fair Vote Canada on Bluesky
Proportional representation doesn’t just change how many seats a party wins, but where.
Whether you’re a Liberal in rural Alberta or a Conservative in downtown Toronto, you get the representation you vote for.
That’s why we love PR-it bridges our divides.

In the case of Alberta, 35% of our seats in the last federal election would have been Liberal or NDP under proportional representation. That’s also including the fact that rural (conservative) ridings tend to have about half the people in them as urban ridings, so the rural votes effectively count for twice as much as the urban ones.
It’s so frustrating living here.
