While Rob is not a social conservative, CLC's past experience with him when he served on the PC Party of Ontario Executive Board in the days before the party was totally corrupted by Patrick Brown (and then by Doug Ford) was that Rob was not hostile to pro-life and pro-family people: he respected their right to free speech and to equal participation in the democratic process; he even pledge at that time to defend social conservatives from unfair treatment by the corrupt, Red Tory establishment. In the end, he resigned on principle because he did not want to take any part in the rigging of nomination contests, which began to happen under former PC leader Patrick Brown.

When a CLC Leader asked Ms. Steiss' campaign office for her stance on killing children in-utero by abortion, her staffer responded: "Kelly supports a woman's right to choose", which is a euphemism for abortion.
In the biography on her campaign website, Ms. Steiss proudly mentions that she was "selected as a member of the Mayor’s Task Force on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion". As many Canadians know all too well, Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE) is ubiquitous code language for LGBT propaganda programming and enforcement, which has systematically infiltrated Canada's governments, schools, corporations and other institutions, compelling Canadians -- regardless of their conscientious or religious beliefs -- to celebrate homosexual and transgender lifestyles, and brutally repressing and punishing those who do not comply.

Based on official party policy statement issued June 11, 2014 declaring support for abortion and forcing taxpayers to foot the bill for elective abortions. This written policy was emailed to CLC by the Green Party of Ontario’s Policy Coordinator, Jessica Higgins. It's also notable that the Green party leader is a fierce opponent of Catholic moral teaching in Catholic schools and strongly supports the homosexual pride parade, an event which breaks the law each year by featuring naked men and mock sex acts through the streets of Toronto.

Official NDP policy is pro-abortion. In addition, the NDP constitution officially recognizes, embraces and establishes a special "committee" devoted to LGBTQ ideology.
