Petition to the Government of Canada
- Accountability and transparency are the two main pillars of good governance;
- The Canadian government has no external tools to hold politicians accountable, particularly with respect to election promises;
- The Canadian electoral process lacks integrity because it is not based on Proportional Representation;
- Attempts to reform the electoral process have failed (e.g. Citizens’ Assembly on Electoral Reform, 2004); and
- An Integrity Committee that reports to the public on a regular basis with respect to the integrity of elections and elected officials is essential to the establishment of accountability, transparency, and good governance.
