 	This is interesting. The Freedom Party runs candidates in about a 
quarter of Ontario's ridings, and they are morally opposed to MMP:

 	I think the basic argument is that the majority should not be 
allowed to overrule the freedoms of individuals, and MMP makes it easier 
for the majority to govern.

 	Also, Orangeville hates MMP (and maybe hates us, too):
