Friend --

As we start 2021 let’s think about of the positive vision that the PPC offers.

The PPC is working to build a Canada where there is a place for all persons of good will and character.

Freedom of speech, when coupled with personal responsibility, fairness, and respect, is the best way to build a thriving society and it doesn’t harm anybody, except those who wish us harm.

A strong, free, responsible, morally confident, and prosperous Canada can thrive and do good without taking lectures from anybody, especially entities from outside our borders.  We believe in the “free world” and will defend it in word and deed.  Canada is strong enough to stand up to bullies, and has the compassion to help those in need.  We can choose to coordinate with other countries where that makes sense, or go it alone, when that is the better path.  It is our choice.

The PPC knows that government cannot be the default answer for every problem.  Our civilization and society will never prosper if we are just a bunch of squabbling tribes trying to harness the 900 lb gorilla of state to beat up those we do not like.

One-size-fits-all solutions from the top-down rarely work better than locally adapted solutions shared upward. A federal PPC government would stay in its lane and follow our constitution.   We’d let the provinces take care of provincial business, and first nations take care of first nations.   We will avoid being the tax collector or regulator for other governments and will concentrate on enabling Canadians to prosper and create wealth and share their values, rather than redistributing wealth or imposing specific sets of values.

Voluntarism, (and volunteerism) is the best and most fair way to organize a society and is also the best way to run a political party.  It is the secret of both our past and future prosperity and harmony, but it takes work and commitment.   Look at history, and you can see how Canadians have found meaning through the willing overcoming of adversity through hard work.

The PPC would provide a government free of elite influence, whether from outside, or inside Canada.  There would be no capture of government by any non-voting interests such as big corporations, big labour, big media, technocrats, public servants, globalists, or identity groups.

Because we focus on the individual, we would not divide ourselves up as Anglophones, Francophones, Aboriginals, and so on.  We can find  common goals to all work towards, as voting and civically-engaged Canadians.  That is what populism ought to be.  There are over 37 million different ways to lead a good Canadian life.  It is not the job of government to tell you how to lead that life.  It is, however, your job to tell us how to run a government.

A PPC government would be a referee, not a player.  We will let all democratic voices have their say, including other political parties or groups that we may not agree with.  We will learn about the full diversity of ideas, from those who genuinely believe in those ideas, not just those who criticize them.   We will be willing to let our own ideas evolve, and can borrow from others, in the spirit of open-mindedness and tolerance.  We are not completely conservatives, and we are not radicals.   There are many good things from our past that are worth keeping, and there are some that must be discarded or improved upon. 

The PPC is a way to get off the less and less meaningful left-right pendulum. We are new, so there is no hidden clique or establishment hiding behind us expecting favours.  We are a party that wants to build a better future, using the best of historically proven old ideas, and good new ideas steered by our simple and timeless basic principles, including a commitment to always hear the voices of all the people of Canada.

Let's get Canada on the right track to a strong and free future. Glowing hearts in a strong and free Canada!

P.S.  Our apologies for the badly formatted message over the holidays.  We will do better in the future.

We will be announcing a Simcoe North PPC "Town Hall Q&A" soon.  Stay tuned!
