Fringe festival

To my surprise, The Family Coalition Party (FCP) appears to be more organized than most of the political parties in Mississauga.

They have four candidates already lined up to fight ridings in Mississauga. That's the same number as the Tories, and four more than the NDP have set up for the election (though the NDP do have nomination meetings set up for next week).

According to their website, The FCP is "Ontario's only pro-life, pro-family political party."

As we well know, the other political parties are all anti-family. I think, when John Tory releases his party's policies this weekend, one of his planks will be to disband all families.

The FCP website goes on to state that the party is "the only provincial party that endorses the principles of the preamble to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in the Canadian Constitution: 'Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law...'"

So, we have a party that is pro-life, pro-family and pro-God. Not sure which version of god, but I have a strange feeling it's the Christian one.

Pro-life is pretty straight forward. No abortion, no assisted suicide.

Pro-family is more open to interpretation. The FCP interpretation seems fairly straight forward. The top link on their website is to an article entitled, "The unintended consequences of women's liberation." They like straight, married people with children, particularly if only the man works outside the home while the woman can keep the home clean and take care of the children. That is their definition of family.

There is a small problem with their webpage, too, other than the dead links and horrid layout. It looks as if someone forgot to tell them election day has moved from Oct. 4 to Oct. 10 because of a Jewish holiday.

Good luck, Family Coalition Party.
