Prince George Free Press » Assembly member encouraging participation


Even if you don’t spend your Sundays watching the political talks shows, you have something to offer a public hearing next week on the province’s electoral system, says a Prince George member of the group examining it.
“People should come out and take part, and be informed,” said Mary Jarbek, one of 160 members of the Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform charged with recommending any changes to the way British Columbians elect their government.
Jarbek will be one of the members hosting a public hearing May 10, one of 49 across the province in the next two months to gather input from citizens.

Prince George Free Press » Unity party chooses education over fielding candidates


The BC Unity Party will probably not field candidates in Prince George for the May 17 provincial election, the area’s regional director says.
Bob Zayonc, who represents the city’s three ridings, said discussions have yet to be finalized, but the party will likely opt to focus on electoral reform rather than the election.
“”We feel that is really the paramount issue coming forward from people,” he said Monday. “We’re still concerned about votes standing for something substantial.”
He said polarization on election day is a serious problem, with governments in the province swinging between right and left.
He said the party supports the proposed single-transferable vote system put forward by the Citizen’s Assembly on Electoral Reform.
