Ontario Election Kit: Ontario COR Party Platform '07

by Apathy is Boring — September 14, 2007

ONTARIO PROVINCIAL CONFEDERATION OF REGIONS PARTY   
[ONT. COR PARTY]   
President:    Eileen Butson

Direct Democracy
The CoR party favours referenda initiated by the people and binding upon the government and recommends recalling from office elected MPPs who fail to vote on issues according to the wishes of their constituents.
  
Elections on a Regular Basis
CoR advocates that elections should take place on a regular basis.
A set term for government may be pre-empted by a no confidence vote.
 
Responsible fiscal management by government
CoR deplores government waste. CoR believes there should be a greater degree of accountability on the use of the taxpayers’ money.
   
Adequately funded and efficiently run health care
CoR's plan for health care would give individuals more responsibility over their own health care.  There would be some costs that people could afford, but no charges for devastating illnesses which could ruin people financially.  We are not, however, in support of a two tier health care system.
 
Single publicly funded school system
CoR believes in providing the same education for all citizens.  If parents want something different for their children, they are free to provide it.

English official language of Ontario
CoR would hold a referendum on Bill 8, The French Language Services Act.
English is the official language of Ontario and CoR would keep it that way.

People may use whatever language they wish, but documents relating to business, financial records and licenses would be in English.

We do not favour officially funded multiculturalism
We do not agree with "unity in diversity."  CoR believes encouraging diversity is divisive.   Certainly people should be free to celebrate whatever they wish but not at public expense.

Protection of agricultural land
By controlling our own food supply we stand a better chance of knowing what we are eating.  The CoR party will support programs which encourage farmers to stay on the land, i.e. making it possible to earn a living.  Good agricultural land must not be encroached on by developers (urban sprawl).

CoR is not in favour of genetically altered food.

Finance
We are not opposed to big business or people making a return on their investment.  We are opposed to takeovers by large international conglomerates, without obligation to observe our laws.

We are opposed to militant socialism in the form of undisciplined unions driving companies to upstakes and to leave the country.  CoR believes in fair negotiations.  We are against the politics of covetousness.
