Given the importance of this process, I would like to spend the passing of the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act in 1964. a little bit of time today reviewing its key elements. The new act was also brought in against the backdrop of the We should go back in this case to 1867 to find the origins of the experience of our neighbours to the south, who were beset by the electoral boundaries readjustment process, or the EBRA process, as problem of gerrymandering. The act, which provides the statutory it has become commonly known. mechanism with which to carry out the constitutional requirements in section 51, is strongly based on the idea of maintaining the In addition to establishing a system that is based on representation independence of the electoral redistribution process. by population, our Fathers of Confederation recognized the geographical, cultural, political and demographic diversity of our In the interests of political neutrality, the act establishes provinces and the importance of integrating these factors into any independent commissions in each province.

As I listened to the parliamentary secretary provision for them to make objections to proposed changes through as he spoke to the bill, I picked up on a couple of words he a committee of the House of Commons. The final decision, however, mentioned, which to me indicate why things are wrong with the rests within the commissions. government and what the problem is with this whole system of boundary changes and representation. He said that the boundary The current guidelines for determining boundary adjustments are changes are effective representation for regions and that the regions found in the Electoral Boundaries Readjustment Act, as amended in of Alberta and British Columbia get the seats they deserve. 1984. As set out in the act, the division of the province into electoral districts must proceed on the basis that the population of each electoral district in the province shall, as close as reasonably Let us in honesty look at this whole thing. This is like giving little possible, correspond to the electoral quotient for that province. crumbs off the table. There is a fundamental flaw in our Constitution, which is that we do not have equal representation. Regions do not However, making changes to electoral boundaries is not just a have equal representation. That is what he did not talk about. When mathematical exercise. Rather, it is a delicate balancing act that must the parliamentary secretary talks about effective representation, I do consider a number of factors, including the community of interest or not know what he is talking about. the community of identity, or the historic pattern of an electoral district in that province, and a manageable geographic size for districts in sparsely populated rural and northern regions. In other Let us look at this for a minute. Historically, one can agree that words, the commissions must consider social, cultural, linguistic, when the Constitution was first brought in for this country the seat geographic and other factors. allocation and representation reflected the reality of that time, which, as the parliamentary secretary said, was around 1800. Today we are The commissions may depart from strict voter parity in order to talking about the year 2004.

Exceptions to this range are possible, but only for remote and sparsely populated ridings. This 25% leeway Now we will have two extra seats for Alberta and two extra seats reflects the Supreme Court's 1991 decision on Saskatchewan's for British Columbia. And guess what: the prime minister in waiting provincial electoral boundaries, which concluded that the objective says that the west needs equal representation and these seats will of the right to vote in the charter was to attain effective give it that representation. Give me a break: two seats will give us representation rather than strict voter parity. equal representation? How can everybody tout that western alienation will be taken care of by these four extra seats? This brings us to our present task. As all members will be aware, we have just completed the redistribution process and have new, up to date electoral maps. The only question is whether or not to Now the Liberals have changed the date. They have brought it accelerate its effective date. If operational concerns are satisfied, forward to April to suit their political agenda.

If this is not political manipulation, what is it? To process. This will in no way change the EBRA process. It remains as couch it in terms of saying that this will address some of the western independent as it always has been. The views of the public and alienation is just plain wrong. members of Parliament have been heard. What has changed is that in this present case, the Chief Electoral Officer has told us that he does not need the full one year grace period that is prescribed in the act.

  • Should Canada Consider Proportional Representation?" March 15, 2002
    Fourth Annual Mel Smith Lecture Trinity Western University "Should Canada Consider Proportional Representation?" March 15, 2002 Nick Loenen Contents Lack of an Alternative Government 6 Objections Considered 11 Excessive Concentration of Political Power 17 Political Disengagement 21 Mel Smith’s Contribution 26 End Notes 31 1 The invitation to give the fourth annual Mel Smith Lecture is a singular honour of which I am deeply appreciative. Mel Smith was imaginative and gifted. When Mel Smith spoke he spoke with authority, because he was an authority. He was devoted to a strong West within a strong Canada. To him, it is fair regional representation at the centre that makes Canada strong, it is also what he considered to be most lacking. He promoted reform through constitutional means. I seek reform through parliamentary and particularly electoral means. Our journeys are complimentary, two means to the same end, our paths crossed, and I gained a colleague and friend. His friendship enriched my life to this day. Mel Smith, as befits his legal profession, was careful to stipulate the purpose of this annual lecture. It is to focus, in his words, “on a national issue from a decidedly Western perspective.” This then is my assignment. I have selected three current, national trends that bode ill for our body politic if left unattended. This paper suggests that a switch to proportional representation can reverse those trends. The trends are: y Lack of an alternative government. y Excessive concentration of power in the PMO. y Growing political disengagement. In closing, the paper suggests that proportional representation might also attain some of the goals Mel Smith advanced throughout his professional life; in particular it shows how changing our voting system relates to Mel's many proposals to effect a more meaningful role for the West within confederation.
