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.

    Is there anywhere else that’s switched to proportional representation, run-off voting, or similar from FPTP? How does it affect things like regional representation. Seems like it creates instances where the candidate from some ridings gets a seat with fewer votes than the other candidate. I think the urban/rural divide is only going to get worse as technology leads to more migration to urban areas even though it’s the rural population that’s taking care of the fundamentals in our economy.
