Fair Voting B.C. and the Springtide Collective for Democratic Society argued in court that the first-past-the-post system violates the Charter of Rights and Freedoms' guarantee of effective representation.
This made me double check the charter. There is no such guarantee. Section 3 is very clear
Every citizen of Canada has the right to vote in an election of members of the House of Commons or of a legislative assembly and to be qualified for membership therein.

The organization of representation is not within charter scope.
Thus the supreme court is in the right here. This isn't them siding with big business or elites. This is a matter of legal application. It's frankly dishonest to disparage the SC otherwise, and sad to see some of the reactions in these comments.
FPP needs reform, but it has to be done legally. This challenge doesn't hold up.
