radioAUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

On the May 31, 2018 episode of Just Right, Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever and Just Right host (and Freedom Party of Ontario president/CFO) Robert Metz discussed the coming, June 7, 2018 Ontario provincial election, and how the Ontario PC Party has essentially consisted of echoing Liberal spending promises, refusing to balance the budget, and refusing to address serious social issues. In other words: they are alienating both fiscal conservatives and social conservatives, hoping that people will vote not for ideas, but for a party with a name that just happens to have the word “conservative” in it.

Regular listeners to Just Right will recognize the voice of Andrew Lawton (in one of the audio clips used in the episode) speaking at a Freedom Party of Ontario dinner in 2013 about his journey from associating with a party devoid of pro-freedom ideas (the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario) to a party that has and promotes the right ideas and policies. Lawton praises the courage of those who run for Freedom Party because it takes more courage to do that than to run with a bigger party devoid of pro-freedom ideas. Five years later, Lawton agreed – for the 2018 provincial election – to be the Progressive Conservative Party candidate for the riding of London West. McKeever and Metz discuss integrity.

radioAUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

On February 23, 2018, Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever and Just Right host (and Freedom Party of Ontario president/CFO) Robert Metz discussed what makes Liberal governance Liberal, and what an alternative to the Liberals requires. They discussed how replacing the Ontario Liberals with Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives would not cause any substantive change at all to the governance of the province.

Topics include what the Liberals have done to Ontario over the last 15 years of their rule; the bigoted, socialist history of Ontario’s Progressive Conservative Party; and a comparison between how life in Ontario would be in 2022 if, in the June 7, 2018 provincial election, Freedom government were elected instead of a Progressive Conservative government.

On The Andrew Lawton Show (AM 980 CFPL, London, Ontario) Freedom Party’s Mary Lou Ambrogio called in to join the discussion about the release, today, of Ontario’s new sex education curriculum. Teaching children that “yes means yes” does not apply, she explains, where the child in question lacks the mental capacity to consent.

2015-02-18.mansur-thumbVIDEO – DESCRIPTION:

On February 18, 2015, former Freedom Party of Ontario candidate Dr. Salim Mansur (professor of political science at Western University) appeared on CBC’s “Power and Politics”in his capacity of spokesperson for Muslims Facing Tomorrow (a pro-democracy, anti-theocratic group of Canadian Muslims) to discuss the federal government’s new anti-terrorism legislation. The other panelist was University of Ottawa law professor Amir Attaran.

Mansur’s position was that 14 years after 9/11, we still are unwilling to acknowledge the fact that the main terrorist threat in Canada is that posed by pro-Sharia, anti-democratic, Islamic theocrats. There will be problems balancing privacy and security in all legislation, but better action must be taken to identify those who have murdered Canadians, and who plan more of the same, argues Mansur.

Attaran condemns Mansur for singling out Islamic terrorism. He submits that Canada is safer than it has ever been and has done fairly well – in terms of the number of Islamic terrorist murders it has suffered, etc. – since 9/11. He argues that although the new legislation would not allow police to sexually assault or otherwise assault a suspect, it would allow them to threaten to do so. Attaran does not address how anyone would take such a threat seriously, if the law continues to prohibit following-through on such hollow threats. Continue reading »

radioAUDIO – DESCRIPTION:

On January 21, 2015, Freedom Party leader Paul McKeever published his essay “Simon Says Sex: The Nature and Purpose of the ‘Affirmative Consent’ Campaign” on his blog, http://blog.paulmckeever.ca. Eight days later, on January 29, 2015, McKeever was the guest of the Just Right radio program (hosted by Robert Metz and Robert Vaughan). The discussion canvassed, in brief, most of the points raised in McKeever’s essay. McKeever explains that affirmative consent – a radical feminist approach to determining the presence or absence of consent to a sexual act – is a revolutionary idea that replaces the presumption of innocence with the presumption of guilt, and that serves to drive the sexes apart as a means to a communist end. Ontario’s premier, Kathleen Wynne, has instructed Liz Sandals, the Minister of Education, to add “consent” to Ontario’s sex ed program (which already teaches about consent) and McKeever points to some clues that the sex ed program might instead be introducing the teaching of affirmative consent.

NOTE: The segment on affirmative consent ran for the last three quarters of the show.

2013-05-01.menzoid-mckeever-thumbVIDEO – DESCRIPTION:

On May 1, 2013, Freedom Party of Ontario leader Paul McKeever appeared on David Menzies’ program “Menzoid Mornings” (Sun News Network, mornings 6 AM to 8 AM). The topic: a ten minute short historical “tutorial” about the “deal with the devil” made in 1993 by the office of Ontario’s then Attorney General – militant feminist Marion Boyd – and sex slaying manslaughter convict Karla Homolka.

The video was produced by McKeever to provide context for Freedom Party of Ontario’s 1994 Gordon Domm Dinner (Domm, a retired OPP officer, violated a court publication ban in the Homolka case by sharing US and British news stories with Canadians…the news reports suggested Homolka played an active part, and was an eager participant, in the sexual abuse and deaths of Kristen French, Leslie Mahaffy, and her own sister Tammy Lyn Homolka), in connection with Freedom Party of Ontario’s 2013 archival release of the video from that dinner (it appears in the Gordon Domm video, available at: https://freedomparty.on.ca/archive/1994/12/03/freedom-partys-gordon-domm-dinner-karla-homolka-and-marion-boyds-publication-ban/#more-2962). However, for those not interested in seeing the Gordon Domm dinner footage, McKeever released his historical video as a stand-alone video titled “Helpless Homolka: How Justice was Battered by Feminist Censorship”, available here: https://freedomparty.on.ca/archive/2013/03/30/helpless-homolka-how-justice-was-battered-by-feminist-censorship/ Continue reading »
