Candidate, Melanie Van Alphen
Liberal Party | Kitchener-Conestoga, ON
CLC rating: Unknown
Light Rating
Rating Comments: During the 2014 Ontario municipal election cycle, Ms. Van Alphen, running for a position as Trustee with the Waterloo Catholic District School Board, stated at a candidates' forum that she did not support a principled motion condemning the participation of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association in the notorious 2014 World Pride homosexualist event, which promoted immoral sexual behaviour and even included a mini-parade of so-called "transgender" children as part of its lurid spectacles. No faithful Catholic could possibly support such sinful behaviour. CLC's 2022 Ontario provincial election questionnaire not yet sent.
