Thoughtful, deeper analysis

There's plenty to say about Ontario's attempts at electoral reform. The arguments we have heard so far include the self-serving (my party will get more seats) the name-calling (your anti-democracy arguments are stupid lies) and fear-mongering (Hitler will be elected with a minority of votes).

I thought it would be nice to see some more unconventional thinking, and deeper analysis as to what MMP is about. I have invited people I know to put their thoughts on paper so that we can see different, more thoughtful analysis that is not necessarily suited to a lightning sound-bite referendum campaign.

This is my first experience with Blogger. I will turn off comments if I can, I don't want to moderate a flame war.
