Councillor Karen Cilevitz
Richmond Hill - ON
Electoral District: Ward 05
Bio

CLC rating: Pro-transgender ideology; Anti-parental rights
Rating Comments: On Nov. 29, 2023 Cilevitz attacked Pierre Poilievre for stating at a campaign rally that: "Justin Trudeau does not have the right to impose his radical gender ideology on our kids and on our schools.”.
She also attacked her fellow Council member, the deputy mayor at the time, for applauding and nodding in approval after Poilievre made the statement.
Clearly, Cilevitz is a radical, pro-LGBT extremist. In fact, it's public knowledge that her adult son is a homosexual.
Also alarming is that in July 2022, Cilevitz plead guilty to fraud under $5,000 for abusing her city council position to enrich her husband, reportedly with more than $21,000 of city council funds.

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Karen Cilevitz on 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | -- |
| Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | -- |
| 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? | -- |
| 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? | -- |
