B.C. has tried and failed to change its voting system. Could another referendum be on?

The wealthy and powerful do not want the everyday folks to have a government that actually represents them. Instead they want to force down phoney majority governments.

I would find this more plausible to believe if the NDP didn't presently hold a majority government in BC.

The NDP did not win a majority of the vote share, they only won 47.69% of the vote.

First-past-the-post distorts the representation of the people, block voting is even worse at this.
