One of the rare times your vote will count. Also - everyone should note that in the next provincial election there will be a referendum on changing the electoral system to get rid of this useless first-past-the-post system we currently use.

The first I knew of it was when I received one of those yellow voter cards in the mailbox! Thankfully, however, there seems to be a better choice of candidates than in the last BC election.

I wasn't even aware of this happening until I read this blog post. Being stuck over in the UK means I won't be able to vote, but I will still be keeping an interest from the other side of the pond as I guess it will have a direct effect on me when I move to Vancouver next year.
