Town hall meeting touts electoral reform
West Shore residents have a chance this weekend to share their thoughts on changes they’d like to see made to the Canadian voting system.
A House of Commons Special Committee is studying what changes to make to the Canadian voting system. As part of that process, local members of parliament are asking the people they represent to take part in a town hall discussion this Saturday (Sept. 24).
NDP MPs Alistair MacGregor (Cowichan-Malahat-Langford) and Randall Garrison (Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke) plan to take their findings back to Ottawa. The town hall meeting runs from 2 to 3:30 p.m. in the Community Commons at Belmont secondary, 3041 Langford Lake Rd.
