香蕉视频直播淚f you were woke, you香蕉视频直播檇 know that pro rep is lit.香蕉视频直播�
It香蕉视频直播檚 the 11-word sentence that has turned heads of all ages since it was uttered by Premier John Horgan during Thursday night香蕉视频直播檚 electoral reform debate with BC Liberal Party leader Andrew Wilkinson.
Social media users were quick to judge what they saw as a cringe-worthy comment, which Horgan defended on Twitter shortly after the 30-minute debate.
I stand by my statement. .

Proportional representation means exactly what it says: 40% of the votes = 40% of the seats.
Governments elected under pro rep do what so many of us do every day. They work together to get things done.
If you香蕉视频直播檙e one of the many people who don香蕉视频直播檛 know what those words mean, 香蕉视频直播渨oke香蕉视频直播� means to understand what香蕉视频直播檚 really going on in a situation, while 香蕉视频直播渓it香蕉视频直播� often means being intoxicated at parties, but anything fun.
Even New Democrat Bowinn Ma, B.C.香蕉视频直播檚 youngest MLA at 33 years old, said she didn香蕉视频直播檛 know the two words until Thursday night.
Learning this phrase tonight reconfirms for me what I've said before: That I'm the youngest MLA in BC at 33 doesn't tell you how youthful I am; it tells you how old is! Let's change this with an electoral system that engages younger voters.

Meanwhile, the catchphrase caught the attention of many online.
The woke and lit comment by Horgan was an attempt to be relatable... I'm sensing a lot of eye-rolls from the intended audience and google searches from everyone else

Wilkinson and Horgan mostly talked over each other during the debate, staying on familiar talking points.
香蕉视频直播淟et香蕉视频直播檚 get modern, let香蕉视频直播檚 get hip,香蕉视频直播� Horgan said, in a bid to emphasize how the current First Past the Post system gives a majority to parties who did not get more than half the votes, and that B.C. needs to modernize.
Wilkinson hammered the point that many ballots are being 香蕉视频直播渢hrown in the trash香蕉视频直播� because people haven香蕉视频直播檛 had the time or information to assess the options.
Mail-in ballots are due on Nov. 30 at Elections BC.
