The Christian Heritage Party is a pro-life, pro-family party. Founded in 1987, it seeks to apply Christian principles of justice and compassion to Canada's contemporary public policy needs.

 

The Policies and Priorities section was last updated in March, before the 2011 federal election was called. As you may know, candidates and parties make lots and lots (and lots) of promises during elections. So many, in fact, that we can't keep up with them. This Party Profile is a general summary.
