Happy #genderequity week!
Our friend Dave Meslin has shared a wonderful reminder of why we pushed Barrie City Council to consider ranked ballot voting – they've agreed to put the question to Barrie residents on the 2022 ballot (and you'll be hearing a lot more about it from us as we get closer to the election!).
Ranked ballot voting doesn't just help balance out Council in terms of gender equality, it allows for greater ethnic and socioeconomic diversity as well – which in turn allows for better decision-making (i.e., doing what's best for ALL residents, and not just those who are already in positions of power).
