  • Auditor-General suggests no confidence in McGuinty, time to resign

    PRESS RELEASE - For immediate release - 

    MARKHAM - Last week (Dec. 5) the Auditor General of Ontario released his 2011 Annual Report. As expected the report itself, all 460 pages of it, is critical of a number of portfolios and agencies that the government considers part of its purview.  We at the Ontario Libertarian Party believe the report highlights just how many areas of our life the government is involved,  and how incapable it is of administering those areas.

  • Revising the Liquor License Act

    PRESS RELEASE – For immediate release –

    MARKHAM – After the Ontario Libertarian Party added its voice to the outrage that was felt across the province for restricting commerce in the name of government interference, the government decided to make a small change to the Liquor Licence Act that was keeping Beau’s Beer from engaging a charitable organization to hire at-risk youth and deliver products to consumers’ homes.

  • Government Job Killer

    PRESS RELEASE  - For immediate release - 

    An Ontario microbrewery, Beau's beer, in an attempt to offer employment to at-risk youth and raise money to fund programs and services for the not-for-profit Operation Come Home, has been denied the opportunity to do so after the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) informed the local charity that they could not continue their home delivery service of Beau's beer. This was done after the AGCO had received a complaint from an unidentified competing brewery.

  • Response to the Speech from the Throne 11/22/11

    In the Throne speech delivered today, while the McGuinty Liberals are acknowledging the global financial crisis, their actions are woefully inadequate as a means of averting the same fate. As if totally disconnected from the market turmoil in all of the Western democracies, the McGuinty government’s plan pretends that Ontario is immune to such problems. In Europe and in America, governments have grown to the point where they are outspending the productive abilities of their own citizenry. The excessive deficits and accumulating debts are now jeopardizing the credit ratings of these countries while impacting the wealth and well being of their citizens.
