7) New federal political party launches

Canadian Future Party

A new party has entered Canadian federal politics.

The Canadian Future Party (CFP) officially launched on Aug. 14, marketing itself as a central alternative to the Liberals and Conservatives.

The party’s interim policy framework focuses on five topics: personal freedoms, open government, responsible spending, and being stronger at home and abroad.

A section of ag is mentioned in the responsible spending section.

“A new party would deliver a report on federal corporate subsidies – including the supply management system – and their impact measured against promised outcomes,” the party’s website says. “If returns on investment cannot be measured, government money should not be spent.”
