History of the Family Coalition Party

The Family Coalition Party became Ontario's fourth largest political party in the 1987 provincial election - twelve weeks after being formed. In spite of short notice, the Family Coalition Party fielded 36 candidates in that election. More than 48,000 people chose the Family Coalition Party over established parties - a remarkable achievement for such a young party!

Why would a new party be necessary? At the time, it was a reaction against abortion becoming "legal" in all circumstances and paid by Ontario taxpayers. In the following years, the party developed policy in all areas of provincial competence, as the most important issues, such as education, health-care, economy and taxation, directly affect the family.
More recently, the party has remained the only party defending marriage between a man and a woman, and defending the traditional family against the continuous attacks from pan-sexual activists, moral relativists and modern social engineers.

"It was not that the FCP had a vision of forming the government or assuming power. Rather, the people who founded the FCP had a vision of what Canada and particularly Ontario, was going to look like at the turn of the century. Around the world, we could see countries at war and the United Nations beginning to influence sovereign countries with its anti-family policies. In Canada, we saw unresponsive politicians who no longer represented their people, but who had sold their souls to the political party they represented. In Ontario, the then governing Liberal party under David Peterson showed its pro-abortion and anti-family face. Our vision in 1987 was of these things getting worse, not better. We have been proven right on all accounts."

In the 1990 election, the Family Coalition Party doubled its size and received more than 110,000 votes. In this election, Family Coalition Party candidates significantly affected the election results - some receiving over 10% of the votes cast. The growth of the party has steadily continued in the last few years.

The party ran 51 candidates in the 2003 Provincial Election and 83 candidates in the 2007 Provincial Election.
