ABOUT FREEDOM PARTY OF ONTARIO

The Freedom Party of Ontario ("FPO") is an officially registered political party in the province of Ontario. You might think of an FPO government as one that will be socially "liberal" and fiscally "conservative".

Fiscally, an FPO government will provide a level playing field by making sure that nobody resorts to coercion, fraud, cheating, or other forms of wrong-doing in their efforts to pursue a better standard of living. An FPO government will greatly lower your tax burden. It will also give you more power, control, and choice over your health care, education, auto insurance and electricity needs.

Socially, an FPO government will draw the line at consent: what consenting adults of sound mind choose to do with one another, at their own expense, is not something with which an FPO government will concern itself. At the same time, because we believe that children and the mentally infirm lack the ability to consent, an FPO government will protect them from violations of their life, liberty or property. Freedom Party MPPs will oppose laws that discriminate on the basis of genetic make-up or peaceful lifestyle choice.

An FPO government will be pro-freedom: we believe that government does not have the right to violate your life, your liberty, or your property when you have done nothing wrong. Government's duty is to protect your freedom by protecting your life, your liberty, and your property from those who would resort to violence and other forms of coercion.

An FPO government will be pro-democracy: we believe that government's authority comes only from the governed, and that the actions of government should be judged by the same ethical yard-stick as the actions of the governed.

We believe that FPO is well-suited for the values held by Ontarians.
