There are three million firearm owners in Canada. Gun control is an issue that will determine many of our votes. The Reform Party promises to repeal Bill C-68 when they form the government. Firearm owners collectively have the power to make a change in government.

GET OUT AND VOTE

The battle the firearms community fought on Bill C-68 was the biggest in the legislative history of Canada. It far exceeded the battle over the GST. The RFOC was there in the fight.

In order to defeat the Liberals at the polls, thereby defeating Bill C-68, we need to rearm financially. Please renew your membership in the RFOC or make a donation to our

IS THIS THE CANADA YOU WANT??

BROKEN PROMISES

In the last election, Jean Chretien promised Canadians JOBS, JOBS, JOBS.

Well, let’s take a good look.

Four million Canadians unemployed. Another .5 million who have dropped through the cracks because they are no longer officially looking for work.

Jean Chretien promised to kill the GST. He is quoted as saying "We hate it and we will kill it."

The Liberal Government now promises to harmonize the GST with the provinces -- A NEW SUPER TAX ON CONSUMER SPENDING.

Liberals promised to save Medicare but health care spending was cut by 40%

In our communities, if people knew the truth about Liberal slashing of health care transfers, there would be a sign in front of many a closed hospital ward saying "Closed by the Liberal Party of Canada."

Infamous Red Book (No longer available, no doubt due to their broken promises.)

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

There have been 35 federal tax increases by the Liberals since the last election.

By next year, the Liberals, under Mr. Martin’s budget will be taking $26 billion more per year from the pockets of taxpayers than in the year they were elected. This means for the average family there has been a $3,000 drop in disposable income courtesy of Liberal spend-and-tax policies.
The new tobacco law will eliminate 120,000 jobs, and adversely affect tourism, sporting events, arts and entertainment.
Army and police budget cutbacks.
Fishing and sporting goods stores, wilderness and outdoor recreational facilities closed down due to implementation of Bill C-68.

MORE LIBERAL BLUNDERS

SOMALIA AFFAIR

The Liberal government is shutting down the Somalia Inquiry to avoid any embarrassments in the upcoming federal election.

MULRONEY AIR BUS AFFAIR

Justice Minister Allan Rock should be dismissed for incompetence over paying more than one million dollars of tax payer's money to former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney for the Liberal government’s role in the Airbus Affair.

CRIME CONTROL

Child killer Clifford Olson’s court bid for early release after serving only 15 years of a life sentence is directly attributable to the inaction of Justice Minister Allan Rock.

Under the Liberal priority -- which inspired the Young Offenders’ Act, the current revolving-door parole system, and the faint hope clause - the highest priority has been given to protection of the rights of persons accused or convicted of crime, rather than the victims.
Liberals under Pierre Trudeau eliminated our rights to protection of property. We have little or no right to self protection and the police are not responsible for your personal safety.

The Liberals are willing to spend 1.5 billion dollars on Bill C-68 putting an unjust, unworkable & economically devastating law into place that will further cost

HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF CANADIAN TAX DOLLARS to administer and enforce.
