A peaceful, well-ordered, and stable democracy in which individuals can flourish is achieved by strengthening the rule of law and ensuring full equality before the law, while at the same time recognizing the supremacy of natural law, a democratic parliament, and the Canadian constitution.
The dignity and wellbeing of the individual is at the heart of a democratic society.
Liberty is best promoted through the ability of individuals to make decisions in their own best interests and encouraging free will (including freedom of speech, worship, assembly, association, political participation, conscience, and religion), while recognizing the responsibilities that accompany all rights.
Prosperity is best ensured by empowering individuals to improve their personal situation through self-reliance and the maximum enjoyment of the fruits of one’s own labour.
This is best achieved by providing equal opportunity to participate in a competitive market economy that rewards initiative and innovation, values ethical transactions, protects private property, and ensures security and privacy.
The health and wellbeing of society is improved by strong families in which parents are the primary educators and caregivers of their children and by recognizing the inherent value and dignity of human life from conception to natural death.
Government works best when there is a clear division of powers and when it avoids intruding on those functions better served by individuals, families, voluntary associations, religious groups, local governments, and the private sector.
Changes to existing systems should adhere to the principles outlined above while recognizing the importance of Ontario’s heritage and balancing any possible benefits against the costs of change.

The New Blue Party is Ontario’s fifth largest political party, behind the establishment PCs, Liberals, NDP, and Greens.
