Here are quotes from Kelli Paddon on various life and family issues:
Adding a melodramatic, sloganeering flourish to her anti-life speech supporting her NDP government's enactment of the taxpayer funding of contraceptives: "We can’t be silent. We must be clear in our support for reproductive rights. I hope that we can all speak together in one voice on this topic today. Access to contraceptives is a right. Abortion is health care." [Hansard, Legislative Assembly of BC, March 6, 2023]
Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Kelli Paddon on 2020.
Question | Response |

Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | -- |
Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion? (note: a surgical or medical intervention, designed to prevent the death of the mother but but which results in the unintended and undesired death of the pre-born child, is not an abortion. e.g. in cases of tubal pregnancy or cervical cancer) | Yes (based on party policy) |
Will you support measures to stop funding abortions with taxpayers' money in British Columbia? | No (based on party policy) |
Do you agree women have the right to be thoroughly informed about the serious health consequences of abortion, the development of the child in the womb and the alternatives to abortion? | No (based on party policy) |
Will you protect the rights of parents to educate their children according to their faith in matters of moral principles and beliefs concerning abortion, contraception and homosexuality? | No (based on party policy) |
Will you support legislation to protect the right of health care workers who refuse to participate in procedures which are in violation of their religious or conscientious beliefs? | No (based on party policy) |
Will you oppose euthanasia and instead support measures to promote “palliative care”, the purpose of which is to alleviate pain, and enhance the quality of life for terminally ill patients and those with disabilities? *Euthanasia is the direct and intentional killing of a person by action or omission, with or without that person’s consent, for what people mistakenly believe are compassionate reasons. | -- |
