Voting is an integral part of electing government leaders, without it, government subjects would, in all likelihood, cause public unrest. It is to prevent these disturbances that an effective voting system must be put in place in a given government to prioritize the needs of the people. A preferential voting system would be an effective way to elect leaders in Canada because it creates a majority government, promotes a strong two-party system and creates a large pool of votes. A majority government could be elected using a preferential vote and would not allow for a minority government and would therefore allow for a better controlled government with little conflict when a new bill comes first, to create a majority government the use would be used preferential voting; a preferential ballot would not allow the formation of a minority government. Using the top positions of the preferential ballot, the voting system should be able to arrive at a party with the preferential majority in votes. If this did not happen and the possibility of forming a minority government with the greatest number of votes arose, the party with the least preference shown towards it would be excluded from the ballet, disqualified from the elections. This process will continue until the point where a majority government is formed. This leads to a second point, with a majority government there cannot be a minority government, or one or the other. It prevents a corrupt party, even if it receives the largest number of votes, from becoming the ruling power in a given government. It is not possible to form a minority government because the basis of a preferential voting system is in complete opposition to it, stipulating that a vote leading to a minority government would be redone. Finally, a preferential voting system would allow people, instead of simply electing leaders, to elect ideologies. With a preferential system, voters can rank the ideologies of various parties based on their agreement with them, allowing them. The use of a preferential ballot would allow voters to sort parties according to preferences and thus create an accurate vote. Since all votes are preferential, the vote pool would be completely accurate as to how the majority feels about specific parties' ideologies. This is important because the government must represent the needs of the people and the more accurate the votes, the better the representation of the people's desires will be. Secondly, the use of a preferential voting system allows the votes of minority parties not to be wasted. Voters who would vote for minority parties often give up doing so for the sole reason that the opposition is strongly against them. Those who vote, however, see their vote wasted as the minority party has no chance of actually playing a major role in government. If a preferential voting system were to be used, votes would have to be cast for other parties and as such more votes would be added to the pool in favor of the larger parties one wants to vote for. Finally, using a preferential voting system results in little apathy on the part of voters since with this system every vote counts; every vote counts because you can vote against the parties you oppose and for the parties you agree with. Nothing more would be done at the time of the vote, one could add to
