MODERATORS
We the people hold the power not the politicians just because they don’t want proportional representation doesn’t mean we’re always stuck with first-the-post.
There are many ways everyday people can be disruptive to force the liberals to do the right thing and to have more than 40 liberals vote in favour of electoral reform.
Like what? What are some of the ways that we can force an MP to do the right thing if they don't want to?
Many things by protesting on the streets, writing to our MPs, educating our neighbours, pushing for pr in the Yukon, holding general strikes and by continuing to bring up the topic for example.
General strikes might help, but when was the last time one of those got serious traction.
As for the other things, those are certainly things you can do, but I'm not seeing how doing them would motivate an otherwise unmotivated MP. Especially conservative MPs.
