Thank you.
First I'd like to thank all the committee members for being here this evening and hearing our viewpoints.
I'm in favour of proportional representation in the form of a mixed member system.
I have voted many times and many times, except once, my vote was orphaned. My vote was not the most popular choice in my area, so it did not receive representation, but a true democracy represents all people, including minorities.
We have a great opportunity at this time in history to make important changes to our electoral system, so my message is very simple. I want my vote to be counted. I want my vote to be represented. I want my views and my values to be represented in Parliament, the governing body that makes laws and policies that affect my life.
We are all equal citizens and our votes should have equal value.
Thank you.
