Good evening, ladies and gentlemen MPs, and everyone here.
I'm going to give my personal opinion.
During the elections, I'd like there to be proportionality. Say, for example, that 10% of voters vote for the Bloc Québécois, but the party only manages to have five MPs elected. I'd like five other members from that party who weren't elected to be given a seat to better represent the proportion of the 10% of voters who voted for candidates for that party. A seat should be given to candidates from that party who received the most votes. Perhaps a Conservative member was elected with 9,000 votes, while the Bloc Québécois member wasn't elected, even though he received 8,000. I would like those people to be elected to represent their voters.
Voters' choices aren't currently being respected. People vote hoping that a certain party wins, but it doesn't. In the end, there are only five or 10 MPs who reflect their values and represent them very well. If 10% of the population wants MPs of that quality, MPs who represent their values well, those MPs need to be elected.
Canadiates also need to be verified. I don't know how members from very special parties can be allowed to stand for election. I think it's absurd.
I have nothing more to say. I absolutely want the people to be considered. They need to be respected. They're the voters who elect the MPs.
I also think the party's mission shouldn't change. The fact that elected MPs change their mind and don't respect their agenda is totally offensive.
