About This Blog

In the 2005 referendum, British Columbians voted 58 percent in favour of BC-STV. New referendum legislation required 60 percent. Volunteers who support the YES for BC-STV campaign are working hard to get the second referendum, to be held May 12th, passed. This blog is designed as a source for Mid-Island volunteers, supporters and interested members of the public.

Environmentalists Endorse BC-STV

Another big endorsement.
Prominent environmentalists are coming out in favour of a yes vote for the proposed single-transferable-vote system, commonly referred to as BC-STV.

Vancouver's David Suzuki, green crusader Tzeporah Berman, climate-change specialist Mark Jaccard, Greenpeace Canada executive director Bruce Cox and resource economist Wendy Holm all support a switch to the new system, according to a news release from the BC-STV yes campaign.
