The House of Commons will vote next week on Motion 86. Sponsored by NDP MP Lisa Marie Barron, the motion calls on the federal government to establish a citizens assembly to "determine if electoral reform is recommended for Canada, and, if so, recommend specific measures that would foster a healthier democracy
Respect to all the Bloc MPs who voted yea. Those guys make out like bandits under the current system.

This wasnt a motion to change the base system, only some slight adjustments to improve access.

I don’t think that is a accurate portrayal of the motion.
