Dartmouth-Cole Harbour will have liberty on the ballot in 2025 with Joseph Shea as our candidate. Joseph is a retired soldier and public servant who, after 38 years, understands better than most how imperative it is to limit the size, scope and cost of the government. #cdnpoli

Liberals took us into Afghanistan, Conservatives wanted to take us into Iraq, New Democrats supported the invasion but wanted blue helmets and Bernier cheerled the disaster as ‘a mission we’re proud of.’ Not us. Libertarians opposed war and globalism the whole time. #cdnpoli

Airdrie-Cochrane will have liberty on the ballot in 2025 with David Sabine as our candidate. David is a father, author and management consultant with 30 years’ experience who is determined to leave his family, and yours, a better and freer country than we inherited.

Poilievre and Bernier may roll back some of the gun bans but they don’t believe in, and won’t work towards, the recognition of your right to keep and bear arms. We must. It may be difficult — but the alternative is enabling a future government to do it all over again. #cdnpoli

We can’t stop America raising taxes. We can’t stop China raising taxes. What we can do, and what we must do, is refuse to raise taxes on Canadians for this or any reason. Retaliatory tariffs make about as much sense as retaliatory lobotomies. Cut, cut, cut. #cdnpoli

Canadians don’t have to settle for a weak promise to ‘reduce’ equalization. It should be abolished — period. End government-to-government welfare, stop pitting provinces, territories and populations against each other and, in doing so, cut the deficit by 40%. #cdnpoli

Sarnia-Lambton-Bkejwanong will have liberty on the ballot in 2025 with Jacques Boudreau as our candidate. Jacques, the leader of the party, is an actuary who understands how trillions in ‘unfunded liabilities’ represent a grave and near-unrecognized threat to the country. #cdnpoli

We respect the right of private debates to include or exclude anyone they want. Even us. Public debates, on the other hand, which we’re forced to fund, should include the leader of each and every registered party running candidates. Open it up — or shut it down. #cdnpoli

It’s refreshing to see the status quo parties promise to cut some taxes — by a few points, for a few years, at least — but that won’t save us. We need to put this country on track to cancel income taxes, cut federal expenses as much or more and close whole departments. #cdnpoli

The fact that Carney can so easily ‘borrow’ from Poilievre, on the capital gains tax hike and more, shows just how close the status quo parties are. They differ on speed, not direction. We need principle. Don’t just cancel the hike, abolish the tax… and keep going. #cdnpoli

The power of the federal government should be so limited that — whether it’s led by someone you love or someone you hate — it can do little harm. As the saying goes, ‘a government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you have.’ #cdnpoli

You have the right to: ✅ reduce your emissions ✅ urge others to reduce their emissions ✅ do business with companies that reduce their emissions and ✅ not do business with companies that don’t. You don’t have the right to: ❌ force your decisions on everyone else. #cdnpoli

‘National service’ is state slavery. If a country is worth defending, it doesn’t need to force people to defend it. We call for the right to keep and bear arms — in part to make conscription, and other tyrannies, as difficult as possible for governments to perpetrate. #cdnpoli

Carney might be our first central banker Prime Minister… but we have long suffered under establishment politicians and central bankers stealing the value of the dollar they didn’t steal outright, hiding spending as inflation and betting most won’t connect the dots. #cdnpoli

Canada’s role in NATO, the international arm of the late-stage American empire, didn’t make sense before the President was threatening to annex us. It definitely doesn’t make sense now. If we want a free, independent and sovereign country, we have to act the part. #cdnpoli

Yes, Trudeau will soon be gone, but save the champagne for when the size, scope and cost of the government is limited to such a degree that it can’t be weaponized against us by the next Trudeau — or worse. Our liberty and prosperity shouldn’t depend on their goodwill. #cdnpoli

The only pro-gun position is constitutionally recognizing the natural right of free people to keep and bear arms to defend against animals, criminals, tyrants and invaders — whether politicians like it or not. Anything less is anti-gun and anti-liberty. #cdnpoli

Americans can ‘buy American’ if they want to. Canadians can ‘buy Canadian’ if they want to. Neither government should be suppressing choice and competition (and, ultimately, capitalism) by forcing people to swallow even higher prices. #cdnpoli

Trump is hiking taxes, inflating prices and treating Americans like children who need central planners to tell them what to buy. It’s dumb, destructive and anti-capitalist. We should gut taxes and regulations rather than engage in retaliatory self-harm. #cdnpoli

If we want a free country, we have to strictly limit the power our government has over us. If we want an independent country, we have to strictly limit the power other governments have over us, too. That means — in part — leaving international entanglements like NATO. #cdnpoli

We have the right to support Ukraine and any other cause with our time, our money and even our life. We don’t have the right, however, to force our support on anyone or everyone else. The government should be concerned with the defence of one country: our own. #cdnpoli

It’s bad enough that we have to pay politicians while they’re in office taxing, spending and regulating everyone else to death or destitution. We shouldn’t have to keep paying after they’re gone. Let them invest in private pensions or get real jobs. #cdnpoli

If and when we’re hit by tariffs, the status quo parties are united: squeeze even more taxes out of Canadians and call it ‘retaliation.’ We can do better. Gut taxes and regulations and stop sacrificing the economic potential of the country at the altar of the state. #cdnpoli

As free people, we have the moral right to defend ourselves against those who mean to harm us, from criminals to tyrants to invaders. If we had a free country, we would have the constitutional right to keep and bear arms to that end, even if politicians don’t like it. #cdnpoli

Ukraine is the victim of decades of geo-political games played by neo-conservatives in Washington and Moscow seeing just how far they can grow their sphere of influence… and just how close they can push the world to the brink of catastrophe. Step one: stop playing. #cdnpoli

The only ‘retaliation’ to foreign tariffs is cutting (or, better yet, gutting) domestic taxes on incomes, imports, profits and everything else. We win by limiting the government, freeing the market and growing the economy, not taxing, spending and regulating even more. #cdnpoli

In 2022, rather than recognize the right of people to govern their own bodies, the government illegally assumed ‘emergency powers’ to better suppress those who dared insist on liberty. Abolish ‘emergency powers’ and treat politicians who violate rights as criminals. #cdnpoli

If America is willing to break trade agreements, we have to assume that America is willing to break defence agreements, too, and begin — finally — to provide for our own defence. It’s time for Poilievre, Bernier and others to join our call for Canada to leave NATO. #cdnpoli

We don’t need grand negotiations or international treaties to benefit from free trade. Yes, it would be best for everyone to drop tariffs, quotas and other anti-capitalist measures with us, but leading by example and doing it first is better than not doing it at all. #cdnpoli

The wrongs done by Canadian ‘leaders’ don’t make it right to murder innocent Canadian men, women and children. The same is true for Americans, Israelis, Palestinians and others around the world. Free people aren’t representatives of the governments ruling over them. #cdnpoli

From trade wars to imperialist dreams of ‘taking over’ Gaza, there’s no better time to grow up, leave NATO and finally begin to defend ourselves. Canadian troops should defend Canada. Canadian citizens can sign up to fight or fund the foreign causes they believe in. #cdnpoli

Drug smuggling and gun smuggling are two heads of the same beast: prohibition. Our governments are creating the black market monopolies they pretend to oppose. If we want to push criminals and cartels out, we have to allow safe and legal markets to flourish. #cdnpoli

Tariffs are taxes, too. We can’t stop Trump from raising taxes on Americans. We can, however, refuse to steal any more from Canadians. Gut taxes and regulations — including tariffs — super-charge our economy, ‘retaliate’ by out-pacing their growth and leave NATO. #cdnpoli

Free countries have free trade and commerce. Americans should be horrified that Trump is raising taxes only 12 days into his term. Canadians should be equally horrified that Trudeau, Poilievre, Singh and others are planning on doing the same to us in ‘retaliation.’ #cdnpoli
