Go Vegan (formerly the Vegan Environmental Party) is a minor animal rights and environmentalist provincial political party in Ontario, Canada.

History

Go Vegan was founded as the Vegan Environmental Party in preparation for the 2011 Ontario general election.

Ideology

The party stands for the protection of both animals and people, calling for:[2]

  1. An end to animal agriculture in Ontario&91;3&93;
  2. No new nuclear power plants in Ontario, and a decommissioning of those still in operation
  3. Focusing more on renewable energy sources
  4. Overhauling the Ministry of Natural Resources so that it represents the needs of all Ontarians (humans and nonhuman animals alike)&91;2&93; rather than the needs of hunters.

Policy positions unrelated to the environment taken by the party would arguably{{according to whom|date=May 2018}} place it on the left wing in Ontario politics. The party calls for increased welfare and disability funding to reflect the actual cost of living in Ontario, eliminating tuition fees at Ontario universities, raising the minimum wage in Ontario to reflect cost of living in Ontario, subsidizing affordable housing, increasing funding for public transportation, and eliminating public funding for religious schools.[2] Like many minor political parties, Go Vegan calls for a change in the electoral system from a First past the post to a system involving Proportional representation.[2]
