Unrigged Season 1 Episode 3

Overview:
We all update our phone's operating system once in a while, but when was the last time we upgraded the "operating system" of our democracy? In Canada, we never have. Election outcomes increasingly misrepresent voter interests, leading to greater polarisation, a lack of diversity in government and low voter turnout. Reforming our voting system could offer more choices and diversity, ensuring voters' voices are truly heard. In this episode of "Unrigged", we follow Kevin Rupasinghe's political campaign for a seat on Toronto’s city council, as he challenges an incumbent in a system stacked against newcomers. Across Canada, community and advocacy groups are pushing for change, recognizing there's a better way to conduct elections. Voting reform could transform candidate selection, campaigning, voting processes, election outcomes, and legislative function. Join us as we explore alternative voting systems and their potential to revolutionise our democracy.
