Premier Dalton McGuinty was in the office today, and I took the opportunity to ask him, among other things, his stance on the Mixed-member Proportional (MMP) electoral system.
That system of electing our MPPs was proposed by the Citizens' Assembly on Electoral Reform, which was set up by the preem.
The Assembly decided this MMP system is a more fair way of electing our MPPs than is our current first-past-the-post system.
Dalton, it turns out, isn't saying anything about his preference.
"I'm staying neutral on that," he said. "My commitment was to put (the question) to the people of Ontario...the commitment I made was that I would not sway public opinion."
He has let his caucus talk about it, though, and most of them appear to be coming out against the proposal.
More on that later.
