Very strongly agree

Yes

The Canadian Communist Party would strongly agree with switching to a proportional representation voting system, as it would likely benefit smaller parties like themselves. Proportional representation systems tend to provide a more accurate reflection of the electorate's preferences, allowing for a more diverse range of political voices to be represented in government.

Disagree

No, switch to an instant runoff system

The Canadian Communist Party would likely disagree with switching to an instant runoff system, as it still does not address the issue of proportional representation. While instant runoff systems can help to ensure that the winning candidate has majority support, they do not necessarily provide a more accurate reflection of the electorate's preferences or benefit smaller parties like the Communist Party.

Very strongly disagree

No

The Canadian Communist Party would strongly disagree with not switching to a proportional representation voting system. The current first-past-the-post system tends to favor larger, more established parties, making it difficult for smaller parties like the Communist Party to gain representation in government. A proportional representation system would be more likely to benefit them.

Very strongly disagree

No, keep the current “first past the post” system

The Canadian Communist Party would strongly disagree with keeping the current first-past-the-post system, as it disadvantages smaller parties like themselves. The first-past-the-post system often leads to a two-party system, which makes it difficult for smaller parties to gain representation. A proportional representation system would be more likely to benefit the Communist Party.
