Alas, the upcoming provincial election has killed Bill 166, the Toronto Ranked Ballot Elections Act. All outstanding pieces of legislation go back to the drawing board; Bill 166 made it through two readings and public hearings had been scheduled, but that’s not enough unfortunately.
It’s a setback. However, patience has been a hallmark of the Ranked Ballot Initiative of Toronto, and I’m confident that the push for ranked ballots will continue afresh after the provincial election.
