There are recent public polls about this issue, and the majority don't want it, just like the APP. Of course leave it to Marlaina to see the issue like this (from the article):
Quote:
"I'm in favour, especially for the largest municipalities — maybe not everyone," Smith said on her Saturday morning radio program, Your Province. Your Premier.
"We've got 355 municipalities. The smaller the municipality, I don't know that they're as partisan. But when you get into a city the size of Calgary or Edmonton, you better believe it's partisan."
Formalizing that would bring more transparency, she said.

This is a direct shot at progressive support in Calgary and Edmonton. They want people to vote in their favor based on conservative baselines, not shades of grey.
And transparency? Really? Voting for individuals vs. voting for parties is the most honest form of picking your representative. What bizarro world is Marlaina living in?
This is one of the worst ideas to come from this disastrous band of circus clowns. They'd like you to vote on which clown car you like the best.
