We need to change the system and get away from FPTP. People deserve a voice in their government, and not just the lesser of two weevils.
As a Federal NDP supporter I hate to see how much popular support the party has but turned into less seats than the Bloc. But it was honestly equally as bad to see last provincial election that 10% of Albertans wanted the Alberta Party to be their voice, but had 0 seats.
If we want to get rid of voter apathy, we need to ensure that voters believe they have a voice and their vote will count for something. This province is full of orphaned right wing voters who don't want to vote NDP and don't want to vote bat #### crazy. And they are stuck in a system where they are told they only get that choice, so of course they won't care.
