That recent poll taken only a week after the election shows that a plurality of Canadians - including Ontarions - are open-minded towards PR... and that the referendum going down to defeat for mMP was not the end of it.<BR/><BR/>Of course, the elitists, anti-reformers, and establishment guys like you will try everything in their power to put out the meme that no one is interested in reform, but obviously that isn't true and it will be countered every step of the way.Oxford County Liberalshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12181314055142726735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31099203.post-49189115494774288962007-10-25T19:49:00.000-04:002007-10-25T19:49:00.000-04:00I trust one poll.
