Stances on issues

Economic issues

  • Economic regulation: Free markets, which are only regulated in so far as necessary, e.g. to avoid market failures, monopolies and cartels.
  • Income tax: None at Federal level; Provinces are left to decide the issue for themselves
  • VAT: Leave Federal VAT at current levels; Leave Provincial VAT at current levels

Social issues

  • Abortion: Support a woman's right to choose
  • Death penalty: Only for treason; use of humane execution methods
  • Euthanasia: Subnational units (Dominions, Semi-Autonomous Regions and Provinces) should establish Euthanasia policies
  • Gay marriage: Support without condition
  • Prostitution: Subnational units (Dominions, Semi-Autonomous Regions and Provinces) should establish Prostitution policies

Foreign policy

  • Diplomacy: All diplomatic efforts should be exhausted before multi-lateral military action is undertaken
  • Immigration: Maintain quotas at current levels
  • Membership in the Hamptonian Empire: The Empire should be structured as a loose confederation of sovereign nations. Ethnic and regional groups should be considered for Semi-Autonomous Region (SAR) status. SARs should be able to qualify for Dominion status once their government becomes self-sufficient.
  • Religious beliefs: Political separation of church and state; Absolute freedom of (non)belief
