==== Sample 1-Minute Opening Remarks ====

{{#ev:youtube|_ooKFRzWRew|200|right|An Ontario Libertarian Minute #1: Libertarians and Conservatives}}
Healthcare, Education, Electricity generation all are monopoly services of the Ontario government.

Each of them has problems with the quality of service, waste, fraud, cronyism, etc.

My colleagues at this table will tell you they have solutions to fix the problems that always occur with monopolies.

Each of them will have a new idea, or little tweak to make each program work better. They will say, "Just give us a chance to fix it," and they have been saying that for as long as these monopolies existed.

Everyone understands that '''monopolies''' result in increased costs, reduced service, and quality, while '''competition''' reduces prices, and improves service.

Libertarians would allow competitive healthcare, education, and electricity generation including '''removing''' the government monopoly on the sale of alcohol.

It's time to think and vote differently instead of the "same ole, same ole."

==== Sample 1-Minute Closing Remarks ====

In 10 years, the Liberals have doubled Ontario's debt because their government spending has doubled.

The Liberals and each of the other parties believe that big government is the solution to '''everything'''. Do you?

But everyone understands that '''competition''' improves prices and service... whereas '''monopolies''' result in less choice, higher costs, more debt, and lower quality.

'''Only governments allow monopolies.'''

Libertarians would provide '''real''' competition in:

*Producing electricity to '''lower''' your hydro bill.
*'''Removing''' the government monopoly on the sale of liquor, beer, and wine.
*Providing more choice in where to send your children to school.
*And allowing for a '''competitive''', world-class health care system, resulting in better and faster care.

Vote for real change, and real choice - choose Libertarian - ''(your name)'' in ''(your riding)''.

==== Sample 2-Minute Opening Speech ====

Healthcare, Education, Electricity generation and transmission, are all monopoly services of the Ontario government and have been for  generations.

Each of them has problems with the quality of service, waste, fraud, cronyism, exorbitant salaries etc.

My colleagues from the other parties at this table will tell you they have solutions to fix the problems that always occur with monopolies.

Each of the members from the other parties will say that this new idea, or that little tweak will make each program work better.

They will say please just give us a chance to fix it. They represent parties that have been saying that for as long as these monopolies existed.

Everyone understands that '''monopolies''' result in increased costs, reduced service, and quality, while '''competition''' reduces prices, and improves service. Consider '''how''' your electricity bill has gone up while your telephone bill has gone down and the service has improved. That's because of competition. A recent report said Canada has the longest wait times for medical care of any OECD nation.

All the other countries allow a parallel private system of healthcare, not in Canada, not in Ontario.

Libertarians would allow a competitive medical care system in Ontario, greater choices in education, and '''real''' competition in producing  electricity that would '''reduce''' your electricity bill. We would '''remove''' the government monopoly on the sale of liquor, beer, and wine.

It’s time to think and vote differently. Let the other parties know that you are tired of the "same ole, same ole." Vote Libertarian.
