Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision Vote Score
Not Supportable
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).
Opposed bad

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Shawn Gear on 2022.

Question Response
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
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
