Elboya Elementary and Junior High School - Proportional Representation

A wonderful experience today at Elboya Elementary and Junior Highschool. The grade 6 students are learning the platforms of all the parties and will hold their own election tomorrow - brilliant! These students are extremely knowledgable! They named every type of renewable energy and alternative fuel, and inquired about hybrid vehicles and methane production. Cudos to the teachers for taking this initiative with their classes. We need to make proportional representation a reality long before these young people vote officially for the first time. I hope to learn the Elboya election results soon after the polls close tomorrow.

Thanks to my brother Alisdair for playing in the park with my little guy while I visited Elboya.
