Electoral Reform Town Hall
Starts: Thursday, September 08

Ends: Thursday, September 08

The government has promised that the 2015 federal election would be the last “first-past-the-post” election. This gives us a once-in-a-generation opportunity to change the federal electoral system and make every vote count.
Canada's MPs have been given the task of collecting feedback from constituents on potential electoral reform, and are due to report back to Parliament in the fall with results. Have your say on how Canada's electoral system should change!
Thanks to Fair Vote Canada - Edmonton Chapter and University of Alberta Political Scientist Ian Urquhart who will be joining us at the town hall to speak and answer questions.
