| Message | We're against this bill. Article 1 - Premier Minister doesn't make sense, it's Prime Minister or First Minister. Article 4 - Assembly of the People sounds too Communist, National Assembly is fairer. Article 5 - 24 months is too short. 36 months is better. Article 6 - 750 seats !? Our population is roughly 12,000,000. If there were 750 seats there would be one representative per 16,000 people. That is ridiculous. 150 is enough for a nation with a population of this size. If we had about 500,000,000 people then 750 seats would make sense. |

| Message | We support Article 2 and Article 3. President, and Province are both unbiased and fair. |
