WATERLOO Cambridges Allan Dettweiler will carry the flag for the Ontario Libertarian Party in an upcoming provincial byelection.
Im running because Im concerned about the direction our province is going into, Dettweiler said. Our government keeps growing bigger and bigger.
People here are expecting too much from the government.
He said people needed to realize government couldnt keep growing and accumulating debt.
Dettweilers no stranger to elections. He ran in 2011s provincial election in Cambridge-North Dumfries.
A father of four, Dettweiler operates a genealogical website and also drives for a courier service. He is married and his wife owns a business in Kitchener.
The Ontario Libertarian Party has been a registered political party since 1975. It advocates property rights and limited government.
A byelection for the Kitchener-Waterloo riding was prompted by the resignation of Tory MPP Elizabeth Witmer April 27. After more than twenty years in politics, she resigned to chair the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board.
