Recall Legislation Cleaned up Governance in BC



Recall Legislation Cleaned up Governance in BC
So why are Ontario Citizens being denied?

Recall is a process through which a registered voter can petition to remove a Member of the Legislative Assembly from office. A voter can only petition to recall the Member for the electoral district in which they are registered to vote. The voter must collect signatures from more than 40% of voters eligible to sign the petition in that electoral district. Applications for recall petitions cannot be submitted to Elections BC during the 18 months after the Member was elected. In Canada, the recall process is unique to B.C. – no other province or territory has a system in place for removing elected representatives from office between elections. 

The question is, which of our squalid political parties will give citizens the ability to turf any dirty lying skunk that deceives voters into the wrong choice?
