Electoral Reform
Medium-Term
January 21, 2024
The RPC will enact new legislation which prevents members of parliament from changing allegiance without first resigning and being re-elected, preventing a candidate from successfully running on our socialist platform before sneakily changing allegiance to a capitalist party. This RPC policy of 'allegiance to platform over party' applies equally in the other direction. Candidates from other parties wishing to run as candidates of the RPC must first resign their current office and seek re-election.
With so many conflicting opinions on the best form of government, any government reform will surely be a contentious topic. Our position is that we must select the best currently known form of democratic government that achieves two main aims:
To create a body of democratically elected representatives which accurately and proportionally reflects the composition of the entire population of Canada in government policies and activities.
To limit corruption and the amassing of influence of individuals by distributing power widely among more people, with expansive oversight and regulation.
We believe that strict limits on personal power and proportional representation in government are required components of every successful democracy - which is why we based our Constitution on those principles.
