On the Scrapping of the Digital Services Tax

Honouring the 81st Anniversary of D-Day
Eighty-one years ago, over 14,000 Canadians stormed the beaches of Normandy alongside our allies in the largest amphibious assault in history.

On the Delay of Canada’s 2025 Federal Budget.
The Modern Commons Party is voicing serious concern about the federal government’s decision to delay the 2025 federal budget until after the summer parliamentary break.

Pride Month 2025: Progress with Purpose
Every June, Canadians come together to honour the history, activism, and achievements of 2SLGBTQIA+ people during Pride Month.

Housing Can’t Come at the Cost of Nature: Modern Commons on Ontario’s Bill 23
The Modern Commons Party of Canada respects that housing is a provincial responsibility—but federal leaders must not remain silent when development comes at the cost of Canada’s natural heritage. Ontario’s Bill 23, the “More Homes Built Faster Act,” aims to address the urgent housing crisis. That goal is important, and it’s one we share. Every Canadian deserves access to affordable, safe housing. But the tools we use to get there matter—and Bill 23 raises red flags.
National Accessibility Week: It’s Time to Build a Canada Without Barriers
As National Accessibility Week 2025 unfolds (May 25–31), the Modern Commons Party reaffirms its unwavering belief: accessibility is a right, not a request. Millions of Canadians—over 1 in 5—live with visible and invisible disabilities. Despite decades of progress, too many still face systemic exclusion in employment, public services, housing, healthcare, and even democracy itself.
Why Canada Needs a Strong Centre — and Why Modern Commons Is the Party to Lead It
In a time of increasing political polarization, a growing number of Canadians are finding themselves politically homeless.

That’s why we’re building the Modern Commons Party—to represent the real centre of Canadian life.

After the Election: Why I’m A Radical Centrist.
The 2025 federal election is behind us, and once again, Peterborough—and much of Canada—finds itself divided. Whether your candidate won or lost, you’ve likely felt the tension. It’s been palpable in conversations with neighbours, in online debates, and even in casual exchanges on the street. The rift between the left and right hasn’t diminished. But as I reflect on the results, I’ve come to a conclusion: I know I fit politically. And it’s in the radical centre.
