Electoral Reform committee  Good afternoon. I want to begin by thanking the Liberal Party for questioning the current system we use to elect members. When I think of the current voting system, I compare it to the evolution of human beings who came from the jungle, then had kings and queens, and finally adopted the first-the-post system, which is a kind of a dictatorship.

Electoral Reform committee  He's laughing because it's true. Yes, he was elected, and I'm happy about that.

Electoral Reform committee  The NDP's Mr. Cullen suggested trying the proportional system and potentially holding a referendum afterwards. It's sort of like someone saying that they have always had the same cake and that, even if it was good, there is better. Let us taste what is better—a proportional system.
