The New Progressive Party Initiative
The Rise of True Democracy
This is an initiative to provide the Canadian progressive electorate
with more information, to encourage them to participate more actively
in electoral politics (whether through participation in the NDP,
Green Party, Canadian Action Party, or new Progressive Party) and
hopefully to unite all Canadian progressive people and parties in an
effective electoral strategy for a better Canada.
There are many millions of Canadians who support peace, international
law, environmental protection, rational economic policies that
promote more safe and satisfying jobs, economic justice, government
funded social services including education, health care, and legal
aid, well administered public utilities, national independence, etc.
The Green Party, CAP, the new Progressive Canadian Party and NDP are
currently the only parties that such progressive Canadians can
support, yet none of these parties currently stands a chance of
beating the two neoconservative parties. A new federal mainstream
Progressive Party could help to break the grip of neoconservative
politics in Canada and usher in a new era of real and meaningful
progress for Canada.
Join us tonight to find out about the current overall landscape of
Canadian progressive politics, the new election and party finance
legislation that will bring significant new opportunities for
grassroots populist political initiatives, the dire crisis and huge
opportunity that Canadians now face, and to explore various electoral
strategies to attempt to prevent a deeper neoconservative take-over
of Canadian politics, leading to further radical transformations of
Canadian society, and a rapid integration of Canada into the US
sphere of influence.

" The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly
limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively
debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and
dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free
thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the
system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the
debate. "
