Fair Vote Alberta
Fair Vote Alberta
Fair Vote Alberta is a campaign of Fair Vote Canada which is pushing for the province to hold a citizens' assembly on electoral reform, similar to those in British Columbia and Ontario. Our campaign petition reads as follows:
- We, the undersigned residents of Alberta, petition the Legislative Assembly to urge the Government of Alberta to appoint a Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform to assess all possible models for electing the Members of the Legislative Assembly, including preferential ballots, proportional representation and our current electoral system.
- Furthermore, we petition the Legislative Assembly to urge the Government of Alberta to give the Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform a mandate to hold public hearings throughout Alberta, and if it recommends changes to the electoral system, that option be put to a province-wide referendum.
Some notable individuals and organizations that support our campaign statement:
- Hon. Dr. Thelma Chalifoux, retired Senator
- Bob Hawkesworth, Calgary Alderman
- Scott Henning, Canadian Taxpayers Federation
- Mel Hurtig, Author
- David King, former Alberta Cabinet Minister
- Karen Leibovici, Edmonton City Councillor
- Terry Wickham, Edmonton Folk Music Festival
- Edmonton and District Labour Council
- YWCA of Edmonton
