Paul McKeever on “London in the Afternoon” re: Ben Levin Arrest and Ontario Sex Ed Curriculum

Jul 082013

AUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

In this episode of “London in the Afternoon” (1290 CJBK AM – London), Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever speaks with Al Coombs about the breaking news of the arrest on child porn charges of former Education Deputy Minister Benjamin Levin, who was in power during the development of Ontario’s age-innappropriate sex ed curriculum (abandoned in 2010 pursuant to public outcry). McKeever was the first to point out the connection between the timing of the development of the abandoned sex ed curriculum, the term of Levin’s participation as Deputy Minister of Education, and now-premier Kathleen Wynne’s term as Minister of Education.

Segments from the interview were played at the top and bottom of the hour as part of the newscast. The full interview was aired shortly after 4:00 PM.

Paul McKeever on the Liberal nomination, in London West, of retired OSSTF head Ken Coran

All, FPO Call-in

Jul 022013

AUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

Freedom Party of Ontario leader Paul McKeever calls into the “London Today” program hosted by Andy Oudman weekday mornings on 1290 AM CJBK. The Ontario Liberal Party has nominated the just-retired Ontario Secondary School Teacher’s Federation head Ken Coran as its candidate for the coming London-West by-election. Coran and his union protested at the February 2013 Liberal leadership confence, at which Kathleen Wynne won the leadership of the Ontario Liberal Party. One week prior to his nomination, he endorsed or praised London West NDP candidate Peggy Sattler. The concern is that, if elected, Coran will be appointed Minister of Education.

Robert Metz on the London West by-election

All, FPO Call-in

Jun 282013

AUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

Freedom Party of Ontario president Robert Metz calls into the “London Today” program hosted by Andy Oudman weekday mornings on 1290 AM CJBK. A by-election is soon to be called for five Ontario ridings, to replace 5 outgoing Liberal MPPs (some of whom have arguably retired due to involvement in a scandal in which the Liberal government spent hundreds of millions of dollars to move two gas plants in an effort to save 5 Liberal seats during the 2011 general election). The news has been leaked to Oudman’s show – by an upset London West Liberal – that the Kathleen Wynne Liberals are going to appoint Ken Coran – former head of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation who is retiring on June 30th, 2013 – even though he and his union led the anti-Liberal government protest held at the February 2013 Liberal leadership contest, and even though he – only a week or so earlier – had been endorsing the London West NDP candidate, Peggy Sattler. All three parties – the Liberals, NDP, and PCs – are promising to continue deficit spending until as late as 2017 or 2018. Robert Metz calls to let the public know that Al Gretzky (Wayne Gretzky’s uncle) will be Freedom Party’s candidate in London West, and that he’s the candidate to elect if people want to balance the budget in Ontario.

Listen to the entire 36 minute, 13 second discussion (absent commercials). Metz’s call starts at approximately the 25 minute, 18 second mark:

They Keep Asking, Now We Answer: Freedom Party versus Libertarian Party

All, FPO-Hosted

Dec 212012

L to R: Robert Metz, Paul McKeever

The word “libertarian” is used in both a formal sense and an informal sense. When a socialist Liberal politician exclaims that the state has no place in the bedrooms of the nation, he is called a civil “libertarian”. When a theocratic Conservative politician calls for a reduction in taxes, he too is called a “libertarian”. And when an “anarcho-capitalist” economist calls for the elimination of government, he is called a “libertarian”. So what does the word actually mean? Continue reading »
