ALT text: Legislative document showing motion #14 by Hon. Mike Farnworth to establish a Special Committee on Democratic and Electoral Reform in British Columbia. The committee's mandate includes examining methods to increase democratic engagement and voter participation, and notably, evaluating "models for electing Members of the Legislative Assembly, including proportional representation" (highlighted in point 1.b). The document outlines reporting deadlines (November 2025 and May 2026), committee powers, and lists committee members including Jessie Sunner as Convener. This represents a formal initiative to explore electoral reform options, with proportional representation specifically mentioned as a system under consideration for BC's Legislative Assembly.

BC Green MLA Rob Botterell is on the committee, along with MLAs from the BC NDP and the BC Conservatives.

The public will have the opportunity to participate in the committee this summer, so stay tuned!
