Policy Workshop: Democratic Reform

Policy Workshop on the following policy proposals:

C24-P012: Fairness in political donations. Received 56.5% green votes in the online Bonser.

C24-P014: Consider Single Member Party Proportional Voting. Received 45.3% green votes in the online Bonser.

C24-P013: Replace the Monarchy. Received 50.3% green votes in the online Bonser.

Each submitter will have 4 minutes to speak to their policy proposal before addressing any points of clarification. The floor will then open to debate and possible friendly amendments. Friendly amendments will be done using the “propose amendment” button in WeDecide. If you have an amendment to propose, please submit it before the policy workshop by clicking on the 'propose amendment' button on each proposal's WeDecide Workshop page. To learn how to use this feature, refer to the instructional video or document. Thirty (30) minutes maximum will be allocated to each proposal.

Once 8-10 policy proposals have been workshopped and finalized, an all-member vote will be held using Simply Voting. A policy must receive at least 60% approval in the all-member vote to be adopted and added to the Green Party of Canada's policy book. To ensure broad consensus, the minimum number of ballots cast must meet the quorum requirement of a general meeting.
