Eves’ Blame Federal Liberals Strategy to Fail

August 25, 2003 – Oshawa – “Eves is doing Ontario a real disservice here”, says Freedom Party of Ontario leader, Paul McKeever. “The Federal and Provincial governments are not in a parent and child relationship: they are, instead, parts of a two-piece puzzle. Every time Eves begs the federal government for money he reinforces the false perception that the feds run the show. The reality is quite the opposite. Mike Harris knows that. Ralph Klein knows that. Preston Manning knows that. I, most certainly, know that…” [Click here to read the full release]

Ontario PC’s: Common Sense Dead, Not Just Sleeping

August 23, 2003 – Oshawa – “The PC party’s common sense experiment with free market solutions is ended, and the party has returned to the government-knows-best attitude that led the PCs to nationalize hydro, monopolize health care, and impose price controls and subsidies on everything from rent to auto insurance…”At this point,” says McKeever “advocates of free market economics who end up voting PC in the coming election are probably best understood as having Battered Tory Syndrome…” [Click here to read the full release]

Why Now is the Right Time to Lift Ontario’s Price Cap:
An Open Letter to Premier Ernie Eves

August 19, 2003 – “…a premier can either be disliked for cutting power even to people who are using hardly any, or he can be disliked by big-time power consumers for taking away daddy’s credit card.

U.S.A. Asks Freedom Party: Canada Friend or Foe?

July 11, 2003 – PROGRAM NOTICE – “[American television network] CBS effectively put Paul McKeever to the task of defending equal treatment for gays & lesbians, and the current legal use of marijuana. “This was a relatively rare and sweet opportunity for me to defend a Canadian love for individual freedom and responsibility that, in some respects, supercedes that of the country most famed for it. The memorable and saddening irony is that many Americans are actually seeing Canada’s de facto defence of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as anti-American…” [Click here to read the full release]

Ontario Auto Insurance: The Problem is Compulsion

July 9, 2003 – Oshawa – “Early reports concerning the contents of Ontario’s Progressive Conservative White Paper on auto insurance make it clear that the Progressive Conservative plan is entirely missing the mark. “Desperate for a bump in the polls, the Progressive Conservatives are again demonstrating a dangerous and foolish fixation with price controls”, says Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever, “and, if the Progressive Conservatives get their way, drivers are going to be worse off than ever before…” [Click here to read the full release]

Electricity: Don’t Blame God Ernie, Blame Decades of Red-Toryism

June 25, 2003 – Oshawa – “On Wednesday, we are expected to use up nearly all of the 25000 megawatts of power that is available to Ontario. The IMO is already planning rolling black-outs in case there isn’t enough electricity for everyone to use at the same time. And what do we get from the premier? A plea for God to intervene. I suppose, then, that Mr. Eves will consider it to be God’s fault if the power goes off in some places today? This is perhaps the most irresponsible premier in history…” [Click here to read the full release]
