Fair Vote Canada on Bluesky
How is this democratic?
It’s time for proportional representation.

A political infographic titled ‘Ontario votes 2025’ compares the popular vote and seat distribution in the Ontario election. On the left, a pie chart labeled ‘How we voted (popular vote)’ shows: PC (43%), Liberal (29.9%), NDP (18.6%), Green (4.8%), and Other (3.8%). On the right, a pie chart labeled ‘What we got (seats)’ shows: PC (64.5%), NDP (21.8%), Liberal (11.3%), Green (1.6%), and Other (0.8%). The infographic highlights the discrepancy between votes cast and seats won under the first-past-the-post system.
Please please please, we need a better voting system. The one time I voted for the Liberals, and was excited about it too, was for voting reform. Never again.
Yeah, the Liberals were careful with their wording. But only the Greens/NDP consistently support proportional representation (the only type of electoral reform that matters).

Lol. Let’s not contribute to the problem by spreading misinformation.
