EDITOR:

I hope voters will take the time to have a look at the maps shown at Referendum P.E.I.’s website to understand for themselves the impact of MMP (mixed member proportional representation) in reducing the already small voice of rural Islanders.

Those of us living in rural P.E.I. are not comforted by the thought of nine party list MLAs whose responsibilities “Cover P.E.I. like the Dew.”

Please vote No to MMP.

Allan Parker,
Mill River East
