Sharon Reeves, a dedicated Fair Vote Canada volunteer for many years passed away this past year. Sharon was passionate about proportional representation. Over the years she led and participated in so many grassroots efforts for PR, both in Ottawa and in Nanaimo.

Board Town Hall, Saturday June 11, 1:30 PM ET

Following the AGM, the board of Fair Vote Canada will be hosting a town hall.

This town hall is an opportunity for our members and active volunteers to speak with the board. Set-up as a one-hour zoom call, there is no set agenda, so this is your opportunity to pose questions, provide us with comments, raise concerns or just chat about what’s going on with electoral reform. We hope you’ll join us!
