Here is Melissa Harrigan's voting record relating to life and family issues:
| Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision | Vote | Score |
|---|---|---|

||
| Flag motion - to permit flying only official government flags on municipal property (no special-interest flags) Council vote to permit flying only official government flags (federal, provincial, and/or municipal) on municipal buildings and property, thus prohibiting the flying of controversial, divisive and special-interest group flags which may be politically or ideologically-loaded in a manner that serves to arouse divisions among citizens, instead of unity (e.g. the Homosexual or Transgenderism Pride flags). |
Absent | -- |
| Motion to punish a duly-elected Council colleague for having expressed opposition to LGBT ideology A vote by Council to inflict punishment on a fellow councillor for having used their democratic and constitutional right of free expression to move a Motion against controversial LGBT propaganda, or for having criticized the same. Municipal Codes of Conduct have been increasingly weaponized in this way by radical leftist politicians to circumvent democracy, and to effectively undo the results of a democratic election, by silencing or sidelining a duly-elected councillor who dared to represent the concerns of their constituents which ran counter to the left-wing worldview. These un-democratic sanctions imposed on the persecuted councillor can include forcing the individual into a re-education camp (a.k.a. mandatory LGBT "sensitivity training"), banning them from attending Council meetings, banning them from voting, and stripping them of their salary. |

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Melissa Harrigan on 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | survey not sent |
| Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | survey not 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 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 sent |
