History
Prior to the foundation of the party, Queenie Yu ran as an independent candidate in the September 1, 2016 byelection in Scarborough—Rouge River,[2] coming in fourth with 582 votes.
Yu and other protesters opposed to the Ontario government's February 2015 update of the Ontario sex education curriculum founded the party in October 2016.[5] It ran one candidate each in the 2016 by-elections in Ottawa—Vanier[2] and Niagara West—Glanbrook.[3] In the 2018 Ontario general election, the party ran a total of three candidates, none of which won their seats.
The party failed to win any seats in the 2022 Ontario general election.[6]
The party achieved its best ever result in the 2023 Scarborough—Guildwood provincial by-election, receiving 3.29% of the vote.[7]
