Jacquie gave perfect answers to CLC's 2025 Ontario provincial election questionnaire.

Rating Comments

Official NDP policy is pro-abortion. In addition, the NDP constitution officially recognizes, embraces and establishes a special "committee" devoted to LGBTQ ideology. Previously ran for the NDP of Canada in the 2019 federal election.

Previously, Gene Balfour was a PPC candidate in the 2019 federal election. Although Mr. Balfour refused to formally answers our questionnaire at that time, he did provide a short written response that indicated he is pro-abortion, i.e. that he would do nothing legislatively to stop the practice of deliberately killing unborn children by abortion.

Mr. Balfour ran as a Libertarian Party candidate in the 2015 federal election. He also ran as a candidate for the Ontario Libertarian Party in the 2018 Ontario provincial election.

In a betrayal of our constitutional right to free speech, freedom of assembly, and the right to protest, Scott voted in favour a draconian Liberal bill to establish "No Free Speech Zones" around all Ontario abortion facilities.

The unconstitutional Bill 163, which became law, bans pro-life witness and free speech on taxpayer-owned, public sidewalks within a radius of up to 150 metres of every abortuary in Ontario. It will put peaceful, pro-life sidewalk counsellors and demonstrators in jail for 6 months, along with the possibility of a $5000 fine for the first "offense". This law will directly result in the deaths of many more preborn children who could have been saved by pro-life sidewalk counsellors, as so many thousands have been over the years.

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.
