Dear Premier:
Re: Toronto District School Board Plan for Africentric Secondary School
On January 25, 2008, I wrote to you asking that you intervene to deny public school boards the power to create race-focused schools. At the time, the issue was the opening by the Toronto District School Board (“TDSB”) of an “Africentric” elementary school. Although you condemned the idea of the school, you refused to make any legislative or regulatory amendments to deny public school boards the power to open up alternative race-focused schools. Facing opposition neither from your government nor from the opposition parties in the Legislature, the Africentric elementary school opened. Continue reading »
Dear Freedom Party Members and Supporters:
At the November 13, 2011 meeting of the Freedom Party of Ontario Provincial Executive, FPO Provincial Councillor Tim Hodges was elected to the Provincial Executive, and now serves as an Officer of the party. As such, he becomes a guardian, as it were, of the party’s guiding principles and policies. Congratulations, and thank-you, Tim!
To all members and supporters, I will just add: we are all very lucky to have Tim. Be sure to send him your best wishes and congratulations.
Regards,
Paul McKeever, B.Sc.(Hons), M.A., LL.B.
Leader, Freedom Party of Ontario

On November 20, 2010, the party I lead – Freedom Party of Ontario – held a pre-election dinner for the October 6, 2011 election. As party leader, I gave a speech to the attendees in which I explained Freedom Party’s strategy for this election. Our strategy was (and is) based upon my predictions about the fate of the Progressive Conservatives in this election.
Did my predictions pan out? Judge for yourself. To get to the meat of my argument, skip ahead to about 11mins, 30 seconds (click here):
October 3, 2011 Toronto – Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever announced today that, if a Freedom government is elected on October 6, 2011, its proposed changes to the price and availability of beer, wine and liquors will take effect on November 25 (the biggest North American Christmas shopping day of the year, known to some – e.g., in the USA – as “Black Friday”). Those changes will include: elimination of the beer tax and wine tax; allowing convenience, grocery, and other private stores to sell wine and beer in competition with the LCBO and Beer Store; and ending the ban on the purchase and sale of products deemed by the LCBO to be politically incorrect.
