My love of liberty and free markets goes back to my high school days in Toronto, when I became interested in the philosophy of Objectivism.
My primary reason for running as a candidate in this and other elections, is to offer an alternative choice to the mainline parties for you the voter. This way, I can be assured that at least my vote, the votes of my family, and you and your family, are not wasted on the mainline parties.
If you direct your vote to me, and others do for Libertarian candidates across Ontario, and the number of those votes is significant, then the mainline parties may begin to realize that there is some real dissatisfaction amongst the electorate that they are not able to address with current policies. They may want to rethink their policies, that is my hope in the short term. We do not need to win to change attitudes. In the longer term, the presence of elected Libertarian MPPs in the Ontario Legislature will change both the media and public perception toward the function of government.
The mainline parties, despite their protestations, are virtually identical to one another. They operate without discernable principles except one, to protect their job and assure their re-election next time. That is their primary purpose and goal. To achieve that, they will compete with one another on just how much of taxpayer’s money or debt will be used to bribe the voters for support.
Don't be fooled. Don’t waste your vote on politicians who suppose that every social ill can be fixed with more spending, more taxation and worse, more debt.
Make your vote count, use it as a weapon to change the status quo.
