I know my colleague mentioned a little about trade-offs. We don't have a measure at this moment. When we look at those guiding principles, or we look at what some of the values are that Canadians put towards their electoral system, we don't know what people would be willing to trade off.
For instance, if you're talking about accountability or local representation, if that's something that is absolutely non-negotiable, not an issue, that we cannot even contemplate, we don't have concrete data to support that information that it in fact is the be-all and end-all.
How can we as a committee determine which electoral system will most satisfy those criteria without knowing which ones are more important to Canadians? What are your thoughts on that?
