MP Wayne Stetski here on Aug. 18 seeking YOUR thoughts on electoral reform

MP Wayne Stetski is coming to Conversations coffee shop on August 18 seeking input on how to improve Canada’s electoral system and ensure that every vote counts equally.

Stetski is staging what he is calling a Summer Democratic Reform Tour that will be stopping in 14 communities, including Revelstoke, to hear from residents of Kootenay Columbia riding.

“In the last two federal elections, parties that only received 39% of the vote formed a majority government with 100% of the power — this is not a fair system,” Stetski said in a statement.  “The current government has promised to make changes, but those changes need to reflect the desires of Canadians across the country, not just the interests of the party in power.  It is important for me to hear from the people of Kootenay Columbia on this important issue, so I can take your views back to Ottawa.”
