For immediate release

Ladies and gentlemen:

Call Upon MPPs and Others to Oppose Doug Ford’s
Anti-Democratic Snap Election Bid


In December of 2005, Ontario saw the coming into force of a new quasi-constitutional democratic right to general elections the dates of which are fixed, by law, and known four years in advance. That important protection against timing elections in a way that gives the governing party a strategic advantage, has been honoured by every government since. Doug Ford’s dubious claim that he may need to call a snap general election as early as this month stands as a threat to violate the trust that voters have placed in those they elect; trust that those they elect will lawfully will honour and defend democracy and the democratic rights of Ontarians.

THE “RIGHTS ARGUMENT”: A SELF-DESTRUCTIVE PERVERSION OF RIGHTS

 All, FPO Opinion
Sep 092021
 

I recently penned a Freedom Party of Ontario position paper that called for government to ban store owners and others from denying service to people who have not been “vaccinated” against Covid-19 (or against those who have). Three proponents of individual freedom wrote e-mails in response. Each rejected both my conclusion and my rationale. Their counter-arguments, in each case, were to the effect that a ban would violate an individual’s rights and improperly increase the scope of government power. I will here assert that, to the contrary, those writers hold a view of “rights” and government that improperly perverts the purpose of “rights” and of government, and that facilitates the use of law to defeat capitalism and promote fascism.
