Why Vote FCP?

1) What is John Pacheco's Campaign about?

To attempt to demonstrate that the traditional family is the best social program going.  Saves money, ensures stability, creates prosperity, provides fulfillment and happiness.  Since the dawn of creation, government has not come up with a better program and never will.

2) Why is John Pacheco running as a candidate in the 2011 provincial election for Ottawa West-Nepean?

John Pacheco is running so that he may work and advocate on behalf of the constituents of Ottawa West-Nepean as a conservative member of provincial parliament and a staunch supporter of the traditional family. John is giving the people in Ottawa West-Nepean an opportunity to vote for a Party, the Family Coalition Party of Ontario, which shares their conviction about preserving the traditional family.

3) If John Pacheco really is conservative, why is he running as a candidate against the Progressive Conservative Party’s nominated candidate?

He is running to ensure that voters in Ottawa West-Nepean have a fiscally and socially conservative choice in the upcoming election.  Unfortunately, today's Progressive Conservative Party is too liberal in both its economic and social outlook. In contrast, the only pro-life and fiscally conservative provincial party today is the Family Coalition Party of Ontario which has a bold vision in not only defending traditional family values but also in the areas of education and health care reform.

4) Is John Pacheco a single-issue candidate running solely on the issue of abortion or other "social issues", or are their other issues he is running on as well?

There are many other issues. "Family values" is not simply a moral dimension to a political position. It eventually affects all areas of our culture, including crime, health care, pensions, education, and taxes, to name but a few of them. The ability to sustain our social programs is dependent on strong, healthy families. The state of the family in Ontario, in Canada, and indeed throughout the western world is in dire need of revival. Even Statistics Canada and the United Nations have recognized the population implosion because of a low birth rate. Immigration will not be able to address the very serious consequences of the "birth dearth", and may even bring more problems of its own. Ontario is digging its own grave. It's very simple. No children? No future and no hope. Silly political jingles and superficial laws which do not address the root of the problem will get us no where, except wasting precious time which we do not have.

5) Does John Pacheco even have a realistic chance at winning. Why should I vote for him on October 6th?

In order to advance social conservatism and protect the traditional family, the politicians who represent the main stream parties need to understand that there is the political will among voters to vote for smaller parties like the Family Coalition Party. Only when social conservatives stand up and refuse to compromise their core beliefs will real change start to happen. It might not happen with a Family Coalition Party government, but it will be reflected in the political reality as the mainstream parties court a growing social conservative vote. Furthermore, social conservatives need to understand that voting for a socially conservative candidate is, first and foremost, an investment in the future. Victory does not come overnight, but depends on past successes, support, and momentum from previous elections. Therefore, let us put away the crippling tendency to compromise our vote and instead vote for what we believe so the political establishment gets the message!
