This is our pact
The covenant
The Human Rights Party of Canada represents the political arm of those for whom the OM
Principles resonate as a viable alternative and who want to dedicate themselves to a 21st
century Canada that is free of ideology, dogma, party politics, class interest, and greed.
With the help of Canadians,
We will shatter the matrix of control imposed on us by manufactured consent, economic
exploitation and police state methods and we will free the people from the oppressive system that
holds us hostage.
We will pursue individual freedom, collective wellbeing, environmental sustainability, universal
prosperity, social inclusion and global unity with equal determination.
We will make government the people’s vessel for all our dreams and will keep all competing
interests and forces in balance so that we all matter equally and are equally entitled to dignity,
prosperity and freedom.
We will safeguard Canada’s democracy and facilitate social evolution and global unity.
We will always tell the truth, we will never stop listening, and we will always deeply care about
each and every Canadian.

These are our governing principles
The Om PRInCIPLES
The OM Principles are the socio-political sentiments of the people, the voice and will of the
99%, and the root that nourishes our political body. The OM Principles provide the rationale
and guidelines for all actions that are to be undertaken by the people’s representatives.
7
our
OM mind
The voice and will of the 99%.
One nation for all mankind, living in peace, equity and justice, respectful of differences, united in
purpose and treating nature as a sacred garden.
National governments and international organizations have gone astray and are treating
people as commodities to be used and abused, as one time voters to be deceived and lied
to, and as potential enemies to be spied on, censored, controlled and punished. The society
the New World Order has created is militaristic, unstable, punitive and oppressive and
serves only the interests of the elites who are impoverishing and disenfranchising the
masses in order to advance a global government that is undemocratic and unfair. The
system the global elites have created is collapsing because it is both morally and fiscally
bankrupt, a state it has arrived at by virtue of its monopolistic, undemocratic and
predatory nature. We, the people, must take control of our destinies and this can only
happen if we make the economic and political decisions by which we are to live. Our elites
have failed and have lost our trust and therefore the right to govern. It is now our turn and
we can only prevail if we organize across borders as an international political force united
in purpose, devoid of prejudices and free of false loyalties.

CORE PRINCIPLES
ECONOMY An economy of inclusion not exclusion.
PRINCIPLE 1
PROPORTIONAL INCOME AND EQUAL TAXATION
The income gap will be addressed through universal rules and firm legislation that tie the
highest earner to the lowest in every industry and between every industry, be it private or public,
at a ratio of 1 to 10 and through proportional wage increases and profit sharing programs
across the board and equal taxation limited at 25% of income. No more CEOs or bankers who
earn 600 times an employee’s salary. Exorbitant profits at the top will be replaced with
prosperity for all by legislating that the highest earners cannot bring in more than 10 times what
the lowest earners bring in.
PRINCIPLE 2
STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENT BY HUMAN NEED
Investment and strategic development decisions will be made by human need and supported by
science and foresight and will no longer be made by bankers and the stock market and their
special interest groups. Need not greed will henceforth inform economic policy. Self-serving
regulations that have led to the corruption of the system and a depraved collusion between big
business and politics will be replaced with rational and fair regulations that benefit society at
large.
PRINCIPLE 3
INDUSTRIAL COOPERATION NOT PREDATORY COMPETITION
Sustainable development and collaborative and cooperative industrial and agricultural activity
will replace the destructive development and predatory and competitive practices of today.
Corporate entities too big to fail will be broken up or dissolved and industrial production will be
duplicated from region to region to be run independently and locally, free of monopolies and in
the spirit of cooperation and sharing and not with the goal of destroying the competition and
increasing market share. No more too big to fail and no more predatory practices that drive
employment conditions and wages down by pitting workers in the developing world against
workers in the developed world and make life unbearable for the working man and employment
unstable.
9
PRINCIPLE 4
WORK AS A RIGHT NOT A PRIVILEGE
Employment in today’s fully monetized economies must be enshrined as a right and not seen as a
privilege. Everyone must and will be working. If the private sector cannot provide employment
the public sector will through infrastructure development, food production and home
construction on a massive scale to prevent poverty and desperation and to empower people to be
in control of their lives and destinies by giving them the tools necessary to fill in the gaps left
open by the free market. Work is a right not a privilege and universal wellbeing depends on
society’s ability to include each and every one in the creation of wealth in a free market that is
not free to abuse and exploit.
PRINCIPLE 5
HAND AND HEAD WORK FOR ALL
The division of labour between manual and intellectual work leads again and again to social
division and ultimately to class war. The new socio-economic system must henceforth not only
enable but demand from each and every individual the opportunity for both types of labour,
manual and intellectual, according to the individual’s skills and abilities. This will eradicate
disdain for manual labour, the monopolization of professions, unfair income gaps between
manual and intellectual labour, and the tyranny of technocrats, bureaucrats and intellectuals
over the working man. It will naturally lead to a fair economy and a respectful society. It will
also ensure a healthier life by alternating sedentary intellectual work with active manual work
within the work week of every man and woman. Everyone must work with their hands and with
their heads and society must be redesigned to provide opportunities for dual employment.
10
POLITICS Global democracy not autocracy
PRINCIPLE 6
GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE
Politics is too important to be left to politicians. Direct democracy through referenda for the
most important decisions and truly representative democracy for daily governance are the
answers to today’s state dysfunction and self-serving political class. The political class will be
replaced by rotating representatives of the populace elected locally every two years to represent
a cross-section of society for one and only one term of office in life. This will free democracies
of the tyranny of lawyers and will ensure that government is composed of members of all
professions and income groups. It will also prevent the monopolization of political power by the
established elite and their manipulation by interest groups.
PRINCIPLE 7
NEITHER GREED NOR ARTIFICIAL EQUITY
No bill shall pass into law that compromises the highest standards of international law, violate
the individual’s dignity, or alter the division of wealth and labour advocated by OM. Never
again will humanity allow capitalist greed and class-interest to divide us by giving rise to
immoral and destructive inequities. Nor will we ever again allow communism’s artificial
division of wealth through misguided methods of redistribution to destroy private initiative and
entrepreneurship.
PRINCIPLE 8
NO INSTRUMENTS OF WAR
Every nation that chooses to be governed according to the principles of OM will immediately
dissolve its standing armed forces and shift their resources and manpower to existing and newly
created civilian institutions tasked with assisting the implementation of the massive work- and
wealth-creation programmes necessary to ensure universal prosperity and economic stability.
Never again will the military-industrial establishment and the mentality of war waste earth’s
precious resources and disrupt peace on earth by pitting nation against nation.
11
PRINCIPLE 9
OPEN BORDERS
Every nation that chooses to be governed according to the principles of OM will immediately
open its borders to allow the unrestricted movement and resettlement of people regardless of
their origin as well as unrestricted trade with nations that reciprocate in full the practice of free
and fair trade. Never again will capital enslave labour by taking advantage of national or
regional differences to exploit the working man and to shackle him in economic bondage.
PRINCIPLE 10
INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS UNDER DEMOCRATIC CONTROL
The United Nations will be reformed by dissolving the Security Council and by ensuring that
each member of the General Assembly is voted into office by general elections at the regional
level and that he/she has no affiliation whatsoever to the ruling party and no contact with the
national authorities for as long as he/she serves in office. The role of the people-elected UN
General Assembly will be that of a global government limited to working towards a one nation
world by coordinating a plan for global unity that adheres strictly to the highest standards of
international law, but that allows enclaves of stubborn regional and cultural differences to live
by their norms and values as long as they are limited to clearly delineated geographic areas and
do not impose their rules on global citizens who pass through or choose to or have to reside in
their areas of control.
12
SOCIETY A humane and just society where every individual is respected and nature protected
PRINCIPLE 11
GLOBAL CONSCIOUSNESS, GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP
Nations are obsolete and stand in the way of developing a global consciousness and of working
together to solve new and old problems. When capitalism’s economic cycles arrive at recession
or depression politicians blame outsiders, leading to conflict between nations, and prejudice
displaces reason within the population, leaving the weak, the foreign and the disenfranchised
vulnerable to abuse. Open borders not detention camps, healing centres not prisons,
brotherhood not animosity, peace corps not armies is what we all want but fail to find because
we are trapped in nationalism. Only by thinking of the world as our home and of every human
being on earth as our cousin will we succeed in finding peace, serving justice and bringing
prosperity to all. Our actions must reflect our ability to think globally, for only then will we give
ourselves the freedom to be global citizens and the benefits of a global economy.
PRINCIPLE 12
CIVILIZATION WITHIN NATURE
The natural balance has been destroyed by human civilization and needs to be restored at all
costs because the future of mankind depends on it. Technological innovation, energy savings,
individual and corporate reductions in the carbon footprint, and emissions trading will not bring
down greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level necessary to prevent let alone
reverse climate change. Nor will any of these measures free the space now occupied by
industrial and agricultural activity back to nature so that ecosystems can regenerate and
corridors of life can be created that are large enough to allow nature to take its course. Only by
reducing our numbers will we be able to restore the natural balance and to ensure that human
civilization continues to evolve within nature’s limits. To reach equilibrium between civilization
and nature our numbers will have to decrease by half and this can only occur if the next three
generations adopt a one child policy. Without the will and the wisdom to reduce our numbers
humanity will self-destruct.
PRINCIPLE 13
INDIVIDUAL DIGNITY
The individual is more important than institutions. Institutions that demand from individuals
that they surrender their own judgements and consciences to safeguard their place within a
bureaucracy and the bureaucracy itself do not deserve to exist and have to be replaced by new
institutions. Our current system is partly failing us because it is sustained by bureaucracies that
kill individual dignity and take away man’s ability to make value judgements that are subtle and
humane. The social, economic and political package envisioned by the 99% puts man at the
centre of civilization and compassion at the forefront of society, giving hope and dignity to all.
13
PRINCIPLE 14
THE GOLDEN RULE
The wisdom of the ages, to treat others the way we want to be treated ourselves, must be
inculcated in our psyche through education and once again allowed to flourish by a socio-
economic organization and by political and legal structures that do not force the individual to
act contrary to the Golden Rule. The current capitalist economy and class-structured societies
are antithetical to the Golden Rule and allow individuals only to pay lip service to it. Without
the ethical guidance of the Golden Rule mankind will not advance to the higher level of
consciousness we need to think of one another as family, to work for each other as brothers, to
treat nature as our mother, and to share and to love one another without expectations of
advantage or ulterior motives.
PRINCIPLE 15
ONE MAN ONE GOD
No one man and no religion knows the will or nature of God. The spiritual domain and the
divine that inhabits it must be freed from the arrogance of organized religion and surrendered to
the individual and our innate spirituality so that we may all seek and find our own God.
Spirituality thus freed will strip away the dogmas and hierarchies of organized religion and
consign them to the past so that they will be looked upon as traditions we have outgrown and
respected as historic necessities that helped us find unity and decency at the heart of the
elemental universal consciousness that inhabits us and that we inhabit. Organized religions
must cede ground to individual spirituality if human beings are to live in the image of God.

This is our plan of action
The 12-point agenda
The democracies of today have without exception slipped out of people’s control and have
been taken over by advantaged minorities who have gradually turned open democracy into
veiled autocracy. Canada is no exception. What remains is the illusion of freedom where
rights and freedoms exist only as long as one does not try to exercise them, where the rule of
law is compromised by those who have set themselves above it, and where surveillance,
censorship and control are the ubiquitous methods by which the masses are manipulated,
coerced and exploited. The establishment obstructs the free exchange of ideas and impedes
the formation of grassroots movements that are sufficiently strong, persuasive and informed to
propose and pursue alternative solutions the people would readily embrace but which threaten
the existing system and its primary beneficiaries. The road to democracy has therefore been
closed shut and the 99% have been excluded from government, from prosperity and from
being masters of their own lives and destinies. We have been reduced once again to the status
of victims of history. To reopen the arteries that keep democracy alive and well and to re-
establish the checks and balances that protect it from decay, corruption and implosion, we
need a bold new vision and the determination to turn it into reality here at home, in our
Canada.
17
Platform of governance
THE TWELVE POINT AGENDA
POINT ONE – FREEDOM FROM BANKS
(To be called the “Victoria Grant Bill”, in recognition of the 12-year old Canadian girl whose
speech on bank reform is an inspiration.)
1. We will take away from the banks the power to regulate the money supply and its value
and make that a public trust.
2. We will then lend money to banks at interest, rather than vice versa as is currently the
case, and use the proceeds to eliminate and then outlaw all public debt so that subsequent
administrations live within their means and do not mortgage our children.
3. We will allow banks to continue to allocate loans since the private sector has a vested
interest to be more responsible and effective than the government, which would abuse
this power and give rise to favouritism and hyperinflation. The government however will
reserve the sole right to allocate funds for strategic investments in key industries like
energy and infrastructure.
POINT TWO – POWER TO THE PEOPLE
(To be called the “Che Guevara Bill”, in recognition of the Argentinian doctor and
revolutionary who fought and died to give people the right to self-determination.)
1. We will retire the political class and give power to the people who will nominate
candidates to political office for a single term only and who will then never be allowed to
hold political office for the remainder of their lives. This will prevent graft and corruption
and will annihilate the influence of special interests on politicians. It will also prevent the
resurgence of a new generation of professional politicians and thus the gradual
entrenchment of a new political class.
2. We will encourage leadership and civic engagement and will broaden political
participation by stimulating interest in self-determination and public service as a right and
responsibility of citizenship. We will do so by making voting compulsory and by
legislating that the House of Commons and the Senate must represent a cross-section of
society by profession, gender and race so that every section of society is equally present
in government.
18
3. We will conduct the business of government in an open and honest fashion. All cabinet
meetings will take place under the scrutiny of live cameras and public broadcasts. We
will keep no secrets from the Canadian public and we will declassify all information
(except that pertaining to military installations) because we believe that a government
that has its people’s best interests at heart does not need secrets.
POINT THREE – PROSPERITY FOR ALL
(To be called the “Mohammed Bouazizi Bill”, in memory of the Tunisian street vendor who set
himself on fire in protest of callous bureaucrats and sparked a revolution in his own country and
throughout the Middle East.)
1. We will make prosperity universal through a new and equitable division of wealth and
labour that ties the highest to the lowest earners in the economy so that incomes rise
across the board and the rich no longer get richer while the poor get poorer, but that we
all advance in step.
2. We will make employment and a living wage inalienable rights and we will empower
your government and the business community to provide a 30-hour work week to every
able-bodied adult who is not self-employed and who has completed a college or
university program. We will also raise the minimum wage to $15 per hour to keep
everyone above the poverty line and make it inflation-adjusted to ensure that no one falls
behind and that corporations can no longer take advantage of us.
3. Instead of early retirement, we will legislate two-months of mandatory paid holidays for
every year of employment. The demographics of our aging population, coupled with the
need to limit the size of families, means that we will all have to work for most of the
duration of our lives and that the only way to enjoy leisure time is to earn it and use it
when we can make the most of it and not when we are too old. Demanding pensions from
our children at 55 is simply no longer an option at a time when the old will soon
outnumber the young. We will push the retirement age to 70 and give those who want to
continue to work the ability to do so by accommodating them in age-appropriate
positions.
POINT FOUR – BALANCED ECONOMY AND FAIR TRADE
(To be called the “Made in Canada Bill”, in recognition of the fact that increasingly more goods
and services come from abroad and that Canadians have as a result no security and no jobs.)
19
1. We will introduce a flat and universal tax rate of 25% for both personal and corporate
incomes and will remove all loopholes and subsidies. This will free private enterprise to
use its resources for productive investment and wealth creation rather than for the support
of a burdensome government.
2. We will pursue a strategic growth plan. A nation’s wealth depends on its ability to make
products, to grow crops, to provide services and to innovate and invent new methods and
processes. For Canada to prosper and for Canadians to be fully employed and fulfilled,
Canada needs a balanced, competitive and independent economy. We will therefore aim
to realize an economy based on 25% manufacturing, 25% services, 25% government, and
25% science and technology innovation. Canadians have no work because nearly
everything sold in Canada is made in China and because the corporations that employ us
are controlled from abroad. We will import only that which we cannot grow or extract at
home and only those products and services for which we have not sufficient labour or
know-how to make at home or of which we have not enough variety at home. We cannot
grow bananas, cotton and coffee so we will import them. We will remove all inter-
provincial trade barriers, secure the market for internal manufacturers first, and seek free
trade with every country on Earth that reciprocates our condition that we will only trade
in goods and services we cannot produce at home or in season and that do not jeopardize
our population’s full employment.
3. We will make your government into a wealth creation engine and not merely a wealth
redistribution vehicle. The Canadian government will be the largest venture capitalist in
the country and will support not only private initiatives but also and most importantly
public strategic investments into industries that will be kept fully or largely in the public
domain: energy, infrastructure, oil and gas, and the mining of select natural resources.
We will also rationalize and direct the manufacturing and distribution chains to break
monopolies and too-big-to-fail corporations and to ensure an economy of inclusion not
exclusion, of finished products not raw materials, and of local not foreign production.
The corporate controlled manufacturing and distribution chains are ineffective and
wasteful, for where is the logic in harvesting wood from Brazil or Canada, shipping it
across the Pacific Ocean to be milled in China into hardwood floors and then shipping it
back across the Pacific Ocean to be sold in Canada or the US or across the Indian Ocean
to be sold in Europe? The savings in labour are being wasted on energy consumption for
shipping and the carbon footprint per unit is that much higher than if the cycle of
production was kept closer to home.
20
POINT FIVE – CHILDREN FIRST
(To be called the “Ben & Oliver Galalae Bill”, to commemorate the structural violence
committed by criminal elements within the government of Canada against human rights activist
Kevin Galalae.)
1. We will put families and children at the centre of our nation so that our social and
economic system contributes to the integrity and happiness of families and not to their
dissolution, as is currently the case. Work from home programs and flexible work hours
will be actively encouraged to facilitate the revival of family life. Most importantly, we
will legislate a 30-hour work week so that everyone has employment and that we all learn
to shift our priorities from empty consumerism to meaningful relationships.
2. We believe that every child is entitled to spend the first five years of life at home to
benefit from the love and exclusive attention of one stay-at-home parent who will receive
a $1200 a month stipend in return for forty hours of work per month for either the
government or the private sector to be performed from home or on weekends and
evenings. Children will no longer be institutionalized or dumped in childcare facilities
because parents have no choice and where children receive no parental attention and are
deprived of the security and comfort of their own home when they most need it for their
healthy emotional and cognitive development.
3. We will retire the immoral and covert methods of chemical, biological, psychosocial and
economic population control currently in effect and will replace them with education and
a system of incentives and penalties to ensure that Canadians have no more than two
children. Our children’s future depends on our ability to stabilize and reduce the global
population to a sustainable level and Canada must do its part. Since Canadian families
are by and large already within those limits, the challenge will be to achieve the same
level of restraint and global consciousness among our immigrant newcomers.
POINT SIX – STRENGTHENING CIVIL SOCIETY
(To be called the “Good Samaritan Bill”, in recognition of the fact that Canada’s checks and
balances are not working and that Canada’s democracy is not functioning as it should.)
1. We will address the abysmal lack of courage and independence in the Canadian media by
ensuring that journalists are bound by law to publish and broadcast cases of structural
violence, institutional discrimination, systemic abuse and economic exploitation, all of
which have become taboo subjects that are suppressed either by corporate or political
interests. The Canadian media is utterly subservient to corporate and political interests
and does not give the Canadian public the duty of care it deserves because it is not acting
21
as a counterforce to political power and economic interests, as the fourth estate it was
designed to be. A Good Samaritan law must come into effect to force journalists to speak
truth to power or else lose their licences and even face prison terms for collusion,
complicity and tacit suppression of information that affects the public good and exposes
individuals to victimhood, but to also defend them from loss of jobs in retaliation for
speaking truth to power. Media owners who interfere with editorial independence will
have their newspaper, radio or TV stations confiscated and the ownership transferred to
the employees and the community they serve. The stranglehold of corporate censorship
of the media will thus be loosened.
2. We will address the feebleness of Canada’s non-governmental organizations (NGOs)
through legislation which ensures that any NGO receiving donations from the Canadian
public and/or funds and support from the government in whatever form has a duty of care
to defend the rights and liberties of Canadians first and foremost. Canadian NGOs are
very good at standing up for victims in the developing world but are nowhere to be found
when it is time to stand up for victims at home or in the developed world. This is
completely unacceptable and Canada’s NGOs should be severely punished in the future
for such self-serving double-standards. Failing to serve Canadians should automatically
result in the loss of their licenses to collect donations and to act as non-profit
organizations.
3. We will give the Office for Democratic Stability, an independent institution we intend to
create, the authority to defend the integrity of our democracy’s checks and balances and
to act as a deterrent to any governmental or corporate effort to weaken or corrupt the
proper functioning of the institutions of civil society.
POINT SEVEN – JUDICIAL REFORM
(To be called the “Save Justice Bill”, in recognition of the fact that lawyers and lawyer-
politicians are too dominant at all three levels of government and have become a law onto
themselves with dire consequence for justice and our nation’s social fabric.)
1. We will restrict through legislation the number of lawyers in government at all three
levels (executive, judicial and legislative branches) to a proportion that is not far above
the numbers of lawyers relative to the general population. Canada now has roughly twice
as many lawyers as doctors, which is a dangerously high and unsustainable number and is
the source of the tough on crime dogma that has saddled Canada with the harshest crime
bill (Bill C-10) in history at a time when the crime rate is lower than 30 years ago. If
lawyers account for roughly 0.5 % of the population, then only a maximum of 10% of
government should be lawyers; a provision that recognizes the fact that lawyers have a
22
more important role to play in government than any other profession by virtue of their
skills, but that also seeks to rectify their stranglehold on government where they are
grossly over-represented. If Canada is to be a truly representative democracy than our
government must be composed of a cross-section of Canada’s population.
2. We will ensure that the fees lawyers charge reflect the incomes of Canadians. Justice is
not possible at $400 per hour. We will pass legislation to force lawyers to charge clients
no more than triple the client’s hourly income and to accept clients as they come in
without selecting the wealthy and discarding the poor. If a client earns $10 an hour a
lawyer cannot charge that client more than $30 an hour for his services. If a client earns
$50 an hour he/she cannot be charged more than $150 an hour by his/her lawyer. The
maximum hourly fee will be set at $250. This will ensure that justice is equally accessible
to everyone, is not dependent on wealth and is affordable, and that it is rooted in the
economic abilities of the nation. Legal Aid is underfunded, susceptible to state
interference, and is not working. Furthermore, it does not establish a level playing field.
The profit motive will be taken out of the equation of justice and the administration of
justice will be able to breathe freely and to concentrate on serving justice not profit. This
will also ensure that the right people pursue a law career and that the legal system has a
symbiotic and not a parasitical relationship to the society at large.
3. To ensure that lawyers and the judiciary are subjected to true democratic oversight the
people must have recourse to an ad hoc judicial body that is controlled by the people and
not by lawyers and the government and that can be constituted locally to hear one case
and one case only of gross judicial abuse or miscarriage of justice. Lawyers cannot stand
in judgement over lawyers no more than criminals should stand in judgment of criminals.
We will give the People’s Protection Court the authority to correct judicial abuse,
corruption and negligence and to award victims proper compensation and exoneration. As
it is, the system destroys and impedes any victim who seeks redress for institutional and
systemic mistakes. That is why Canada’s judiciary has become utterly unaccountable and
totally self-serving and abusive. Compensation awarded by The People’s Protection
Court or existing higher courts must be paid not from the public trough but from the
incomes of the lawyers, judges and public servants who are directly and indirectly
responsible for the damage caused to the victim. The amounts must also be approved by
the Office for Democratic Stability to ensure that they are reasonable. The Canadian
taxpayer should not be liable for judicial incompetence, greed, negligence or corruption.
This will ensure that self-interest is put to work for justice not against it and that lawyers
and judges will be far more circumspect with the law and with the powers they have once
this is the case.
23
4. The government has no business in our bedrooms or in our families. Couples wishing to
separate must be referred to mediation not to courts. Equal and shared child custody
rights must be automatic as in the European Union. Parents cannot be arbitrarily
separated from their children and property by flawed authorities and institutions that have
their own economic interests at heart.
5. We will decriminalize cannabis and release all prisoners currently incarcerated for
marihuana related offences. We will not accept any American interference in this matter
and we will no longer fund the police to wage war on what is a harmless personal choice.
The government will take control of the marihuana production and distribution and make
it a source of income for all Canadians. Incarcerating innocent individuals and destroying
their lives and families to satisfy economic and judicial interests and ugly prejudices is a
crime that has gone on for far too long and that constitutes a terrible stain on our national
conscience.
6. Given the injustice with which the Canadian judiciary has turned large numbers of poor
and helpless Canadians into criminals it is necessary to grant a general amnesty to all
Canadians serving time for non-violent offenses and to wipe their records clean through
pardons so that Canada can start a new life and begin healing after 50 years of judicial
abuse. During this time of empty prisons we will convert the great majority of prisons
into healing and detoxification centres and we will pursue a policy of minimal
incarceration so that the current rates are brought down to the level of nations that are
most kind to their citizens. Instead of gearing Canada to reach America’s incarceration
rate (at 740 prisoners per 100,000 being the highest in the world and nearly as high as
that of the Soviet Union under Stalin, at 823), Canada should aim to reach India’s level of
civilized behaviour (at 21 prisoners per 100,000). We will put an end to the Conservative
policy of impoverishing our people by transferring our jobs and capital abroad to enrich
themselves while criminalizing our poverty to cover up the social ills they have created.
POINT EIGHT – IMMIGRATION WITH A PURPOSE
(To be called the “Prodigal Son Bill”, in recognition of the fact that no human being is an alien
and that we all originate from the same source, Africa, and share a single planet and a common
purpose.)
1. We will open our borders to immigrants to gradually but rapidly bring our population up
to 100,000 million so as to be able to afford a coast-to-coast super modern infrastructure
and create an internal economy of scale that makes us largely independent of exports and
an industrial force to be reckoned with.
24
2. We will use our vast landmass and unparalleled yet under-utilized natural resources to act
as a safety valve to the world’s pressure points. As a nation of immigrants inhabiting the
second largest landmass on earth, we have no excuse why we should not do more than
anyone else to contribute to peace and stability worldwide.
3. We will never incarcerate immigrants or separate families. We will treat every human
being with respect and compassion and we will welcome them in our midst with gratitude
and hospitality.
POINT NINE – ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
(To be called the “David Suzuki Bill”, in recognition of the lifelong work of our national icon.)
1. We will embark on the largest public-private program of renewable energy in our history
to make our country largely independent of fossil fuels within a generation. We will build
the infrastructure necessary to take full advantage of a multipronged approach to energy
production through biofuel, biomass, geothermal, hydroelectric, solar, tidal, wave and
wind power.
2. We will redesign our building codes to incorporate the latest energy-conserving
technologies and standardize their use in every new building as well as encourage the
retrofitting of existing structures. We will also encourage urban planning projects that
incorporate environmental sustainability.
3. We will conserve more land from development and industrial exploitation by expanding
our national parks system and strengthening the protection of existing conservation areas.
POINT TEN – GEOPOLITICAL LEADERSHIP
(To be called the “Universal Brotherhood Bill”, in recognition of global unity as the primary
goal of our generation.)
1. We will put your government at the global forefront for the universal acceptance of
global citizenship, the removal of frontiers and global and unimpeded freedom of
movement for every human being on earth.
2. We will give the people the authority to decide through periodic referenda their
sovereignty within the emerging global government that is currently taking shape without
our input and at great cost to us. As a first act of geopolitical leadership, we will be the
first nation to pull out of post 9/11 international accords that compromise our sovereignty
and threaten the world’s peaceful and equal coexistence. Autocratic policies and double-
25
standards have no place at the global governance level and we Canadians must show
courage and determination to safeguard international covenants and national prerogatives.
3. We will put your government at the global forefront for the most aggressive and honest
global policy of population reduction so that humanity can live within the earth’s
regenerative capacity within 100 years and the threat of environmental catastrophe is
eliminated once and for all. The survival of mankind depends entirely on our success in
this respect.
POINT ELEVEN – CULTURAL DIVERSITY AND AUTONOMY
(To be called the “Global Village Bill”, in recognition of the fact that Canada is the home of
multiculturalism and tolerance.)
1. We will pursue a policy of cultural diversity within our nation’s borders and beyond to
preserve the world’s heritage and promote mutual respect, tolerance and equality for
people regardless of color, creed or culture so that our nation is viewed as the world’s
safe haven, a model of compassion and the home of multiculturalism. The most vibrant,
colorful and rich societies are those in which different cultures, religions and ethnicities
exist side by side. Cultural homogeneity is as dull and dangerous as a forest with just one
species of trees, which makes it susceptible to disease. In the cultural realm the disease is
expressed in political ideology, religious dogma, and delusions of racial and cultural
superiority.
2. We will expand Canada’s cultural output and keep our talent at home. More importantly,
we will embark on a nation-wide program to enrich the public sphere in tandem with the
modernization of our infrastructure. We will create and fund new cultural institutions that
reflect our changing spiritual and intellectual priorities with the goal of edifying the spirit,
strengthening our health, and promoting closer cultural interaction and mutual respect.
3. We will restrict the use of advertisement in the media to five minutes for every hour to
limit the level of control and the manipulation of our base instincts for commercial
purposes. We will also secure funding for the CBC at twice the current levels through
direct household fees to ensure that the CBC has the means to provide Canadians with
world class news coverage and can be Canada’s voice abroad.
26
POINT TWELVE – THE REPUBLIC OF CANADA
(To be called the “National Emancipation Bill”, in recognition of Canada’s transformation into
a Republic.)
1. We will take Canada out of the Commonwealth of Nations and make our country fully
independent of the British Crown by declaring Canada a Republic. The office of the
Prime Minister will be replaced with that of the President who will be elected for a single
five-year term and can never again be re-elected. While grateful for our British heritage,
we believe that the institution of the monarchy is antithetical to the principle of equality
among men and undermines Canada’s evolution towards non-hierarchical governance
structures and direct democracy.
2. We will pursue a foreign policy that is uniquely Canadian and not beholden to foreign
objectives and interests, but has at its ultimate outcome the peaceful and equal
coexistence of people throughout the globe and a common human civilization. We will
never extradite our citizens.
3. We will turn the properties of the Governor General in Ottawa and of the Lieutenant
Generals in each province into orphanages that we will fund with the money now used to
lavishly support the Queen’s representatives in Canada and her Provincial Viceroys.
The Human Rights Party of Canada will succeed only if Canadians find the courage to
take a leap of faith, the wisdom to live according to a higher level of understanding, the
strength to act now and act without hesitation, and the confidence to be a model for the
world to follow, for only then will we be able to unlock the benefits of a peaceful and united
world.

The leadership
Your voice

Kevin Galalae Leader
I stand before you for one and one reason only, to return this
country to the 99%. To accomplish this Herculean task Canadians
must rally behind us. We are fighting for our lives not just for our
livelihoods and for self-determination. Unless Canadians wake up
to this brutal reality we will all be too poor, too ill and too weak a
decade from now to defend ourselves against the global coalition of
interests and forces that have not only impoverished and
disenfranchised us, but have turned the basic elements of life into
weapons of mass destruction and have aimed them on us and on our
innocent and helpless children.
For 68 years we have been the target of a silent war of attrition carried out in complete secrecy.
In the name of peace and security, every Canadian government since 1945 has cooperated with
the United Nations and the international community to control population growth in order to
prevent war. While the goal is noble the methods used are anything but and have undermined
every right and liberty we think we have, including our right to life. Every ill in our country
today is a direct consequence of this international world order.
I have been arrested six times and held behind bars for nearly one year by our current
government and their criminal partners abroad to prevent me from exposing programs and
policies that are immoral and illegal. They have robbed me of my children, belongings, freedom,
livelihood, and intellectual property to force me into submission so that I would acquiesce to
their global autocratic regime and sell you out. I did not and never will. I have instead proposed
an alternative solution that accommodates the needs of the world without sacrificing our dignity
and freedom, but in fact strengthening them. I call it OM, short for ‘our mind’.
I stand before you as the father of two young children who has realized that unless I get off the
fence and take charge of the self-serving bureaucrats, lawyers and politicians who are in control
of our lives our children will have no future. I have always viewed politics and politicians with
the greatest suspicion, have voted only twice in Provincial elections, and only because friends
have asked me to support their candidates, and have never cast a vote in a federal election. But
that is not because I am apolitical. On the contrary, I have always been keenly interested in
national and especially international politics. Unfortunately, Canada’s political landscape is
almost as insipid as a Vegan diet and our country has no say at the international table. In
addition to that, Canada has yet to abandon its colonial thinking and to graduate to the status of a
sovereign country, which is why all important political decisions continue to be made in Britain
29
and all crucial economic policies emanate from Washington. This means that participating in the
Canadian political process is as futile and inconsequential as threading water. I have entered the
political fray to change that.
My views cannot be reflected by any existing political party or ideology, but emanate from the
understanding that party politics and national politics are anachronisms in a global world that is
wholly interdependent, ethnically mixed and multipolar and whose problems demand global
solutions reached by broad consensus not class interest. They are also guided by pure necessity,
the necessity to give a cohesive voice and a clear direction to the many disparate groups and
organizations that make up the civil rights movement and to the deep and growing dissatisfaction
with the political establishment by the 99%, but that unfortunately advocate single issues or
protest injustice but do not offer a vision and a roadmap that considers the many conflicting
interests governments must accommodate.
While the masses are fragmented and protest in vain, the elites pursue global alliances and
consensus that benefit only the 1%. Not surprisingly, the 1% have become fabulously rich and
the 9% that serve as their buffer are used to keep a system in place that drives us, the remaining
90%, like beasts of burden and treats us like herds of sheep. In the meantime, we, the people,
have become powerless because we are trapped by national politics and the votes we cast have
no relevance whatsoever to the supranational decision making process of the New World Order.
That is why the existing national and international institutions lack democratic control. The
autocratic financial and political forces that fund and influence these institutions want to keep it
this way. What we need is a global political compact that does not exclude the masses and is not
the exclusive domain of elites, which is currently the case. Such a compact is being opposed and
sabotaged by autocratic forces that are using the terrorist threat as a pretext to circumscribe our
fundamental rights, stifle legitimate political dissent, and prevent us from organizing as a united
political force across borders. All attempts currently underway to establish a democratic
counterforce at the grass roots level capable of wresting away power from the elites and put it in
the people’s hands are being destroyed through covert and immoral attacks on the emerging
leaders of this global movement.
The 1% are playing with fire. They fail to recognize that we can no longer be deceived through
propaganda and forced to submit to fake democracies. In their arrogance they refuse to concede
that global security cannot be achieved through fear and police state controls. Now, more than
ever, security can only be the result of a complex interplay of economic, political and cultural
factors tackled with the wellbeing of the entire world in mind and not the interests of privileged
minorities.
30
The current state of instability cannot be counteracted through desperate overexpansion of
conventional security measures because it is the result of disrupted balances: in economics,
between capital and labour; in politics, between the people and the State; and in culture, between
the West and the Rest; and not the result of traditional armed conflict. These three sources of
conflict and animosity are the by-products of a global shift from trade within and between
nations to a global and borderless economy and the lack of a unified legal framework and the
democratic institutions to enforce it. This vast and rapid shift from the national to the global has
upset the internal balances of nation states and has brought about a state of global disequilibrium.
The world is being reshaped and human civilization reconstituted but without the people’s input,
which is why increasingly more of us are being cut off from the circle of prosperity here in
Canada and abroad.
I stand before you as a man who was born free and intends to die free because I refuse to be
treated as a slave. As always in history, the establishment prevents change because it does not
want to share power and wealth. People have always had to fight to earn self-determination and
the right to keep the wealth they create. For the first time in history we the people must now
fight for control at the global level. But the people’s will and interests are being sabotaged with
covert measures of surveillance, censorship and control, imposed under the cover of a non-
existent and wholly fabricated terrorist threat; measures that have gagged the press, handcuffed
the courts, and annihilated civil society.
I have spent the past five years of my life proving and fighting the existence of covert and illegal
programs of surveillance, censorship and control that are rooted in policies designed to silence
anyone who speaks and acts against the autocratic system of the New World Order and do so
fully outside the law and without fear of ever being subjected to legal processes. My work is
nearly complete and the evidence is indisputable, we live in a police state and a police world At
the same time, I set in place the conceptual framework of a government of the people, by the
people, and for the people to take over from the current global government of the elites, by the
elites and for the elites, which is collapsing all around us and unless we are proactive it will
throw us into total chaos and anarchy.
The OM Principles I have drafted allow Canadians to lead the way and to unite people across
the world in common purpose. They represent the socio-political sentiments of the 99% and
show how we can replace the existing system, which is based on the ideology of greed and is
exclusionary and unjust, with a new system that is inclusionary, compassionate and just. The
People’s Protection Court that I have founded is a non-violent and organized way to check the
legal authority of corrupt national and international judiciaries and reestablish the rule of law and
equality under the law. What is still missing is an enforcement arm, a People’s Protection
Force, to protect people from structural violence and give the incipient movement of global
freedom fighters the power to impose its will on the 1%, who have monopolized the media,
31
political decision making and economic wealth and have thus wholly disenfranchised us from the
right and the means to self-determination, and who are clearly unwilling to take their hands off
our throats. We aim to make the Human Rights Party of Canada into a People’s Protection
Force that we now sorely miss. And that cannot happen without you; without each and every
Canadian standing up and joining us shoulder to shoulder.
To avoid conflict and preserve peace, I have given the Canadian government and the
international courts the opportunity to reverse course and to identify and punish those who have
instituted a global system of autocratic control. Should these courts choose instead to ignore us
and to do the bidding of the autocrats that now pose as our democratic leaders, we will begin
designating politicians, judges, police and military officers and other civil servants who have
collaborated in constitutional and moral crimes as enemies of the people and bring these
criminals to justice.
If the authorities resist the will of the people – having already eliminated any and all possibilities
of resolving conflict peacefully and of addressing our grievances – civil global conflict will
ensue. In this conflict the 90% will be pitted against the 10% and the 90% will inevitably win.
The question is at what cost. The leaders who will order the use of force against us will end up
in prison alongside the tyrants of the Middle East who now face the wrath and judgment of their
people, a turn of events thought impossible just a few years ago.
I stand before you as an immigrant who knows what it means to be excluded and
marginalized. Having fled the hell of communism I understand what it is like to start from zero
and to struggle from the bottom. I am no stranger to manual work and lack the disdain with
which our elites view those of us who labour for a living. In fact, I consider physical work
integral to a healthy mind and healthy body, and absolutely necessary for a healthy attitude.
I stand before you as a thinker, in the humble understanding that by waiting on the sidelines I
have failed to do my duty and expected the system to do it for me. I have abandoned our elected
officials and have expected them to perform miracles.
I now have the wisdom to understand and the humility to admit that our politicians have failed us
because we have failed them, and that our democracy is in shambles by our default. I now have
the courage to stand before you and to remind and warn you that nothing will change for the
better in this country or in the world unless all Canadians come to the same realization as I have
and walk the walk instead of just talking the talk. Whoever you elect to serve you will be
ineffective without your willingness to serve your country, your people and the world.
Most of all, I stand before you as a human being, who cannot bear to see my fellow man
suffer and the indifference with which those in the establishment make our lives unbearable. I
32
refuse to be told what to think and what to say. I refuse to be made redundant and I refuse to be
manipulated. I refuse, most of all, to be indifferent.
Should you elect me to lead you into the future, I promise you this. I will never lie to you or put
my interests before yours. I will never be compromised or intimidated to act contrary to my
conscience. I will set new standards of citizenship by example not rhetoric. I will spend a day or
night of every month in prison or in a care facility, stilling the sorrows of our fellow Canadians
who are behind walls, lest I allow my humanity to go dormant once again. I will spend one day
or night of every month doing menial labour, working shoulder to shoulder with honest and
hardworking Canadians, lest I forget where I come from and be contaminated with the poison of
power and the comforts of privilege. And I will keep my door open to those in distress, lest I
lose contact with you and forget why I have been elected.
I am an open book and will remain so whether I win your trust for public office or not. This is
