This petition exists as a sad reflection of current Ontario governments at both the provincial and municipal level. The United States has such laws in place. It’s time Canada did as well.

Provincial and Municipal Recall Legislation
A Petition to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario – RECALL LEGISLATION
To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
Whereas, currently the public has no mechanism to remove an ineffective elected official between elections;
And Whereas, recent activities involving both provincial and municipal elected representatives of all political stripes diminishes the public trust and ought not be tolerated in a free and democratic society;
And Whereas, the hallmark representative government is that ultimately, the authority to govern rests with those governed;
We, the undersigned, petition the Legislative Assembly of Ontario as follows:
That the Legislative Assembly of Ontario expeditiously passes Bill 124, Election Amendment Act (MPPs’ Recall), 2013, and amend it to include municipal elected officials.
