Other premiers have sent constituents rebate cheques, but as a bonus from a surplus. Mr. Ford’s government is billions of dollars in the red

      I’m aware of this organization but other than raising awareness what does the organization do with the money donated to it and how open is it with its spending?

        They’re a non-profit organization that started in 2001. All of their activities are financed through individual donations, they use that funding to campaign for proportional representation.
