Tips on getting Canadians engaged in electoral reform

Megan Dias, a master’s student in political science at UBC, believes townhalls and similar methods of engagement aren’t working and that the Liberals need to come up with a better way to engage Canadians in electoral reform.

In an op-ed for the Ottawa Citizen, Dias suggested: “Part of the answer is to highlight why we’re doing this, what problems we’re trying to solve, and why electoral reform is the way to solve them. And, to give Canadians a sense of the next steps, and how their opinions will matter as the Autumn of Electoral Reform looms.”
