The Liberals betray our individual autonomy by backing this WHO treaty. It’s an attack on your right to self-ownership and medical choice. We are not the government's property. Coercion is always a moral wrong. I will always stand for your freedom.

Trafficking is a vile use of force and coercion against the innocent. It violates every individual right. We have a moral duty to protect the vulnerable from this aggression. Good to see them stepping up. We must crush these criminals.

Inaccurate accounting is a lack of honour. When the CRA messes up, they disrespect our property. The moral case is clear: Canadians deserve to control the money we earn. End of story.

A lot of the controversies about those who identify as trans have simple solutions.

Some scream about bathrooms, but single user bathrooms solves that.

Then there’s sports, but a separation of sports and state solves that.

But some don’t want liberty-based solutions…

It breaks your heart to see this. Government inflation is a moral violation, stealing value of hardworking people. The compassionate solution is simple: Stop printing money, cut the taxes, and let every Canadian family keep their earnings to feed their kids. #cdnpoli

Anyone else shocked that the Left just makes stuff up in the deflections instead of defending their terrible policies that don't help anyone but Unions and their members with overly inflated wages and restrictive red tape? They hate people thinking differently, if only they would try thinking.

Stop calling yourself a libertarian. It's not even a legitimate ideology, and you can't even adhere to its basic tenets.

Glad to see the jobs, but politicians shouldn't take credit for private success. Real growth happens when the government steps back and respects property rights. Slash the red tape for everyone and let the market actually do its thing.

This wastewater tracking is creepy. It's mass surveillance and a huge invasion of privacy. Individual liberty means we own our bodies and our choices. The government needs to respect our privacy and leave us alone. Stop treating Canadians as data points.

Another government mechanism? No thanks. Individuals should have the freedom to choose their own education, and schools should be free to accept them. Stop over-complicating voluntary deals. That's where real opportunity is, friends.

Easy to call it an 'investment' when it’s not your own cash, eh? Taking money from struggling Canadians to fund foreign conflicts isn’t charity, it’s theft. Real help is voluntary. Leave our property in our pockets and let us decide where to send it.

Real liberty means respecting rights and one's ability to consent. Soliciting from those unable to consent is a violation of the NAP. A free society must have zero tolerance for harming the innocent. Justice needs to be harsh to prevent crime.

More government won't fix the problem. We keep throwing taxpayer money at a failing system. It's time to let parents decide where their money for education goes, so they can find the schools that actually work for their kids. No more failed govt solutions.
