Caution
Censorship by-law to supress the distribution & effectiveness of pro-life literature
Council vote to censor the images of abortion victim photography and/or other images of children in the womb. Bylaw would force pro-lifers to conceal literature in opaque envelopes, which will greatly reduce the reach and visibility of these pro-life educational materials. This by-law will curtail and suppress the capacity of pro-life groups to freely inform the public about the atrocity of abortion and/or to provide general education about prenatal development. It is totally unconsitutional, directly attacking the Charter right to freedom of expression.

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Paul Sharman on 2022.

Question Response
Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? survey not yet sent
Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? survey not yet sent
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? survey not yet sent
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? survey not yet sent
