The electorate of Mount Isa is 570,502 km2 in size, a hugely vast area. The Dalrymple electorate is 105,337 km2. The State Government is now proposing the electorate of Traeger which will combine both the Mount Isa and Dalrymple electorates, while eliminating a small portion of the southern end of the Mount Isa electorate. This will make the total size of our electorate 490,048 km2, more than double the size of the United Kingdom! We believe we need 3 electorates in this area, not 1.

North of the Capricorn and West of the Great Divide and we are forgotten about, but Brisbane does not mind taking the royalties out of this area. One single rep replacing 3 would be a disaster for our region.

This electorate has more potential then the whole of QLD but has not enough reprentation. We need 3 Reps to get this country moving. No infrustacture being done because we are to slow up top. Do me a favour and travel to Asia.

Why do the State Government not see that proposing that the Electorates of Mt Isa and Dalrymple is just a Disaster for All. We are crying out every day with Neglect from the State and Federal Governments now. Where were The Government when the Drought was so fierce in Our Region, Not a Sound or Word. Fly In or Fly Out - Where does leave the Locals for Employment Ambitions? NOW, We have been given this very Unfair Representation of the State Government Proposed new ELECTORATE called Traeger - if the Government knew Their History They would be insulting Mr Traeger, Because He was a man who was about COMMUMICATION!
Everyone Please do Your Research on the Map of Queensland and see the area that is proposed for Our ELECTORATE. If We do not sign a petition and let Our Voices be heard, This will be another State Government Statement of """ We don't care about Rural Queenslanders"""

For our area to grow we need fair representation, The wealth generated from our part of QLD needs to be reinvested here to create jobs, not distributed amongst the urban voters.
