Libertarian Pub Nights

Come by and meet flesh and blood libertarians at one of our monthly “dinner” meetings in Belleville, Burlington, Hamilton, Ottawa, Stouffville, Sudbury, Toronto or Waterloo . We promise not to bite non-libertarians who want to find out more about our philosophy, but we do promise a vigorous debate for anyone who challenges our ideas.

Come by and meet flesh and blood libertarians. Discuss over dinner and/or a few brews how Kathleen Wynne has (temporarily) averted a possible defeat by agreeing to the NDP's demand for a reduction in auto insurance premiums. No cover charge.

Bring a friend. Everyone is welcome. Hope to see you there!
