Living in Canada’s Boreal Forest, I’m playing guitar and singing, riding horses as a trail guide, curling, sailing. Former (and maybe future) Green Party Canada and Manitoba candidate. Detaching (I hope) from corporate social media.

I think the promise was “the last unfair election”
The problem is JT (or, probably, more accurately, Gerald Butts) thought that Ranked Ballot was a fairer system.
But pure RB is still a majoritarian system, and is even less proportional (thus less fair IMHO) than FPTP. Once the ERRE made that assessment, it was the end of any “reform”.
