  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

Safe seats, swing riding pressure, and unchecked power are built into first-past-the-post.

A split panel infographic. On the left, the title reads “5 Ways First-past-the-post Exacerbates Political Corruption.” Below it are five rounded text boxes that list: concentrated power, no real accountability, swing riding favouritism, high stakes access, and easy manipulation of rules. On the right, a close up photo shows a man in a suit holding an envelope stuffed with cash, suggesting hidden influence or bribery. A small footer reads “Learn more at fairvote.ca.”

Those conditions make quiet influence and strategic favours far more valuable.

Proportional representation breaks that pattern by making every vote count.
