Proportional-first-past-the-post

Proportional-first-past-the-post (P-FPTP), also known as 50-point proportional representation or the 50-point system, is a mixed electoral system that uses a novel percentage point method to allocate seats in its compensatory tiers, instead of party lists. It was proposed as a replacement to Canada's first-past-the-post voting system by Robert S. Ring in his 2014 Master's thesis at Memorial University of Newfoundland, and was presented before the Canadian House of Commons Special Committee on Electoral Reform on October 5, 2016.
