Jim Enos
Jim Enos, born in 1959, first became politically active in Hamilton after speaking out against a sex-ed video being shown in his son's Grade 6 class.[11] By 2000, Enos had become the Vice-President of the Hamilton-Wentworth Family Action Council, a socially-conservative, Christian organization that sought to change city and school board policies to focus on Christian morals.[12] A prolific letter writer to the Hamilton Spectator, Enos has written about the social problems associated with common-law marriage, teaching about contraceptives in school, and what he called the "risky sexual behaviour" of gay people.[12][13]
Enos and the Hamilton branch of the CHP were embroiled in a legal dispute with the City of Hamilton over transphobic ads the party sponsored in local bus shelters. The ads sought to influence city policy on allowing trans people to use the washroom of their choice by implying such a policy could help sexual predators. The ads were deemed offensive by the city and were removed, which prompted Enos and the local CHP to take the city to court.[14] A judge later found in favour of the CHP and ordered the city to pay $44,000 to the party for legal costs.[15]
Enos has run for office on nine occasions with the
