Proportional representation (PR) is a democratic principle specifying that people should be represented in proportion to how they voted. This means the percentage of seats a party has in the legislature should reflect the percentage of people who voted for that party.
Under our current first-past-the-post system, voters elect a single representative in each single-member riding, no matter how diverse the voters in a riding may be. This makes it impossible for all voters in a riding to elect a representative that represents their values and priorities. In some ridings, 70% of the voters cast ballots which elect no-one.
