It was with great pleasure that we came across your movement to bring reform to the electoral system in Canada. This is the first and foremost activity that all citizens should be actively working towards. Everything else hinges on this issue. It is great to see that we have an organization that is doing just that.
A few of us are starting a new federal political party called the Women's Alliance Party. Because this issue is our major ‘platform’, we would like to get in touch with you so that we can learn about your activities, join your campaigns and become actively involved in awareness building.
Please do contact us.
Best regards

Esther: Thank you for your interest in Fair Vote Canada!
You have come to the right place. As you may know, every country that elects at least 30% women to its legislature uses a proportional voting system. Removing systemic barriers to the election of women is one of the founding core principles of Fair Vote Canada.
I am copying this to June Macdonald, who is Chair of the Women's Caucus of Fair Vote Canada.
I would encourage you and your members to do two things right away—sign the Declaration of Voters' Rights and join Fair Vote Canada. Both of these things can be done at http://FairVote.Ca. Note that those who join before March 31 will be eligible to vote in this year's national election of officers.
I look forward to meeting you and discussing your plans.
Wayne Smith
Executive Director
Fair Vote Canada
