CLC rating: Pro-abortion, anti-free speech, anti-parental rights
Rating Comments: Damerla previously served as a Liberal Party of Ontario MPP under the pro-abortion Kathleen Wynne. Subsequently she ran for City Council Ward 7 and won. While an MPP, she betrayed our constitutional right to free speech, freedom of assembly, and the right to protest, Damerla voted in favour a draconian Liberal bill to establish "No Free Speech Zones" around all Ontario abortion facilities. The unconstitutional Bill 163 banned pro-life witness and free speech on taxpayer-owned, public sidewalks within a radius of up to 150 metres. 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 bill 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. In 2013, she voted in favour of Bill 13 which destroyed parental rights & religious freedom in Ontario schools. The tyrannical legislation forced Catholic schools to accept student-led, homosexual-activist clubs, which completely undermines Catholic moral teaching. The legislation also made it mandatory for all schools to accept the dangerous philosophical ideology of "Gender Identity", which teaches children that their being male or female has nothing to do with their biological reality, and is merely a "social construct".

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Dipika Damerla on 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | -- |
| Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | pro-choice (based on voting record as MPP) |
| 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? | No (based on voting record as MPP) |
| 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 (based on voting record as MPP) |
