Federal Election – 2011
Libertarians will be running in a few constituencies in Canada.
I am running in West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast-Sea to Sky Country.
Please see a National Post article on some of the Libertarian positions:
John Shaw, Libertarian Party of Canada
Here is a short digest:
- The challenge is to tame the leviathan of big government and return control to the individual.
- Libertarians are not anarchists. Libertarian reforms would proceed with the least possible dislocation to society.
- End the war on drugs. Drug dependency is a medical problem.
- End Canada’s participation in foreign wars. Weaponry kept up-to-date for defense only – no fighter jets.
- NOTA (None of the above) added to ballots to provide choice for voters.
- Legal reform to provide for property rights in all provinces.
- Economic reforms include a single federal flat income tax, reduce/eliminate government debt, and reduce wasteful government spending.
- Shrink the state. More freedom for the individual!
