Progressive Conservative Party, Hamilton East-Stoney Creek, ON
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-abortion, Anti-free speech
Rating Comments: Jeff Beattie won the September 2026 by-election in the provincial riding of Hamilton East-Stoney Creek.
As a Hamilton City Councillor, Jeff Beattie voted in favour of an October 31, 2023 motion to censor pro-life expression in the City of Hamilton. The motion asked Staff to draft a censorship by-law to prevent the effective delivery of abortion victim photography to city residents, by requiring them to be placed inside sealed envelopes. Furthermore, the motion asked staff to investigate how to ban the display of protest signs containing abortion victim photography, on public, taxpayer-owned property, throughout the city.
The use of abortion victim photography has been an effective strategy to convert "pro-choice" Canadians to the cause of saving preborn children from death by abortion, and thus, has become a target of illiberal censors like Beattie. The Charter enshrines freedom of expression as a fundamental right for all Canadians, and does not grant any exception for abortion victim photography, nor even for people being upset by the images. Any such by-law is unconstitutional. In fact, abortion victim photography plays an important role in waking up Canadians, out of their apathy, to the holocaust of abortion which claims 100,000 children's lives annually. It is essential pro-life expression, and must not be suppressed.

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Jeff Beattie on 2026.
| 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? If yes, please explain. *A surgical or medical intervention, designed to prevent the death of the mother (e.g. In the case of tubal pregnancy or cervical cancer) but which results in the unintended and undesired death of the pre-born child, is not an abortion. |
Yes (based on voting record as a City Councillor) |
| Would you support measures to delist medically unnecessary, elective abortions from the list of insured services covered by OHIP? | -- |
| 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 voting record as a City Councillor) |
| Would you vote in favor of repealing the Ontario "bubble zone" censorship law? This unconstitutional law criminalizes peaceful pro-life expression, including silent prayer, on taxpayer-owned public sidewalks within 50 metres (or more) of any abortion facility. | -- |
| Will you protect parental rights in education by working to ensure that traditionally principled parents are given advance notice of, and the ability to withdraw their children from, classroom lessons and presentations dealing with abortion, contraception, homosexuality, and transgenderism? | -- |
| Would you support efforts to repeal the age-inappropriate, graphic, sex-ed curriculum which is currently being taught throughout Ontario schools? | -- |
| If elected, will you vote to reject laws that would expand euthanasia and assisted-suicide and instead, promote palliative care, the purpose of which is to alleviate pain, and enhance the quality of life until natural death for terminally ill patients, and for those with disabilities? *Euthanasia is the direct and intentional killing of a person by action or omission, with or without the consent of that person, for what people mistakenly believe are compassionate reasons. |
-- |
| 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? | -- |
