I know hardly any of you care about this, but I do passionately:
British Columbia is having a referendum on the Single Transferable Vote!!!
Good for BC. Enlightened on gay marriages, and now also on electoral systems.
(Not quite true to say that it’s a “first for Canada” – well, maybe having a referendum is, but a couple of the provinces used variations of STV at some point in the past.)
That is very nice! How old is U?
