A mind, like a book, works best when it is open. A recent Environics poll by LeadNow asked
"Some people favor bringing in a form of proportional representation. This
means that the total number of seats held by each party in Parliament would be
roughly equivalent to their percentage of the national popular vote. Would you
strongly support, somewhat support, somewhat oppose, or strongly oppose moving
towards a system of proportional representation in Canadian
elections?" Even with this brief
description of proportional representation, it appears Canadian minds are
open.
Fair Vote Canada (FVC) believes opening minds through
education is critical. As well as print
and visual resources for teachers and the public, it is looking to leverage the
power of video. In particular, it is
looking for a video that will go viral—a video that will inspire action and
unite Canadians. After the deadline of
May 30, the FVC YouTube channel will share the videos and start the process of
voting for the Viewer's Choice Award.
There is also the Judged Panel Award. If you are a videographer or know one, here
is a chance:
