It all depends on who comes out to vote but the deck is stacked against because a lot of the suburban crowd is opposed or doesn’t care so status quo is their first option. The problem wth a referendum is it’s an opinion poll taken on one day and only those going out to vote will have a say. Municipal elections have a notoriously low turnout so the issue will be decided by a very small percentage of Winnipeggers. One of a host of reasons why governing by referendum is a bad idea. Good thing you are organizing a Yes committee!
