With the Liberal government considering changes to the federal electoral system, Conservative Portage-Lisgar MP Candice Bergen is convinced a referendum should be involved. RM of Portage la Prairie Reeve Kam Blight says they're firmly behind Bergen's stance. 

"Basically the council members said if there's going to be any changes made they want to make sure they have a say, and know what those changes are. Or at least can vote in favour or against. That was just the general consensus running around the council table."

He adds council's basically following the recommendation that Bergen's proposing, noting any changes that occur should always involve everyone.
