Side-by-Side Candidate Comparison in the Riding of Haliburton--Kawartha Lakes--Brock 

Rating Comments

Ben gave perfect answers to CLC's 2022 Ontario Provincial Election questionnaire.

Rating Comments

Kerstin gave mixed responses to CLC's 2022 Ontario Provincial Election questionnaire, which ultimately allow for abortion as a "choice" without specifying any limits. Further, Kerstin would maintain the current OHIP coverage of abortion, which forces taxpayers to finance the killing of prenatal children. In addition, Ms. Kelly told constituents during the 2022 election campaign that she is "pro-life but there are exceptions". On the basis of the candidate holding exceptions, CLC cannot consider her to be pro-life but, at best, educable on this issue.

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.

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.
