The Equal Parenting Party is a minor father's rights political party in Ontario, Canada, founded in 2014.[1] The party is described by leader Dennis Valenta as a single-issue party[2] and focuses on combating perceived inequality in Ontario family law against fathers in divorce proceedings, especially regarding custody and access to children.[3][4]
EPP nominated two candidates in the 2014 provincial election, Valenta ran in the riding of Huron—Bruce and Dolly Catena ran in the riding of Mississauga East—Cooksville.[5] Neither candidate gained a seat in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario and the party received 0.01% of the popular vote.
