Strong family ties and stable relationships are economically and socially beneficial, leading to fewer cases of single parents, better job stability, more productive members of society and decreased welfare costs. Government has a fundamental obligation to protect and promote the well-being of the family and family members through political, economic, social and juridical policies, which aim at consolidating the unity and stability of the family. Parents have the original, primary and inalienable right and duty to educate, discipline and care for their children and therefore must be recognized as the primary care-givers of their children. The state should not push its own political agenda onto children in classrooms. A family is defined as those individuals related by ties of blood, marriage or adoption.
Marriage is the union between a woman and a man as recognized by the state.
Ontario's tax laws must be reformed so as not to discriminate against married couples who wish to have one parent at home to raise their children. The Ontario Coalition will lead in promoting the benefits of stable relationships. The Ontario Coalition supports and respects the dignity, lawful independence, privacy, integrity and stability of every family. The Ontario Coalition will introduce proven programs to reduce family violence, which attacks the very foundation of our society. The Ontario Coalition recognizes and respects the work of mothers in the nurturing of children.
