There is no difference because they are two unrelated concepts. The number of members per district is different from the method of selecting candidates in a distract. Proportion representation specifies the latter while single member district is the former.
In a single member district electoral system, each district elects only one representative, generally based on a plurality or majority vote. In a proportional representation system, seats are allocated to parties based on the proportion of votes they receive, allowing for a more accurate representation of popular vote percentages in the overall composition of the legislative body.
Proportional representation is an electoral system in which the number of seats a political party wins in an election is proportional to the number of votes it receives. This system ensures that the share of seats a party holds accurately reflects the support it has among the electorate. It is designed to provide fair representation for a diverse range of viewpoints in government.
In a winner-take-all system (like First Past the Post), the candidate with the most votes wins all the representation for a particular district. In proportional representation, seats in an elected body are allocated based on the proportion of votes a political party receives, allowing for a more accurate representation of the electorate's political preferences.
British Columbia's federal electoral districts are called ridings.
Duverger's law suggests that in a plurality voting system (like First Past the Post), two-party systems are likely to emerge due to the strategic voting behavior of voters and the winner-takes-all nature of the system. This means that smaller parties may struggle to gain significant traction and representation in such electoral systems.
