  • Single Vote Proportional Proposal for a New Election System for Canada
    Single Vote Proportional Proposal for a New Election System for Canada by Rick Ingram Canada’s current election system is based on 338 electoral districts (more commonly known as ridings) with the elected candidate for each riding being the one who receives the most votes; this system is known as first-past-the-post. This document outlines an alternative system called Single Vote Proportional. It is a hybrid with characteristics of first-past-the-post, single transferable vote and mixed-member proportional. All election systems have advantages and disadvantages. Proponents of electoral reform (including this author) find the disadvantages of first-past-the-post to be so overwhelming that there is an absolute need to introduce a replacement system. The problem has been finding a replacement system whose own disadvantages have not generated strong enough opposition to leave us with the status quo. Single Vote Proportional addresses the primary disadvantages of the 3 other main election systems. The significant advantages of Single Vote Proportional far outweigh its own disadvantages and make it a viable alternative to the clearly broken current system of first-past-the-post. Single Vote: One voter -> one vote -> one candidate For voters, no change from the current ballot or process Local Representation: 90% of the MPs are riding or regional representatives Every riding has a Riding Seat MP or a Regional Seat MP Only 10% of the seats are for national Balancing Seat MPs Inclusive: Every vote counts - and will be considered until the last
