| SURVEY QUESTION | ANSWER | ANSWER | ANSWER | ANSWER |
| 1. Organizations like Planned Parenthood (PP) routinely counsel women to have abortions, and increasingly, are involved in dispensing the chemical abortion pill. Given that abortion is a controversial practice that many taxpayers in your municipality find abhorrent, do you agree that PP and similar “sexual health agencies" should not receive taxpayer funds through the municipality? | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse |
| 2. Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse |
| 3. Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse |
| 4. There has been a move in some municipal jurisdictions to pass bylaws which establish censorship zones, also called “bubble zones”, around abortion facilities. These unconstitutional censorship zones make it illegal to express peaceful pro-life speech, including silent prayer, on taxpayer-owned public sidewalks within the vicinity of abortion facilities and pharmacies which dispense abortion pills. If elected, would you vote to oppose such a censorship bylaw, if it were ever proposed? | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse | No reponse |
