MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert
New Democrat Party, Vancouver-West End, BC
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-abortion, anti-traditional marriage
Rating Comments: MLA Chandra Herbert instigated the reintroduction of a bill to corrupt the BC Human Rights Code by imposing the made-up LGBT phrase "gender identity or expression" upon the Code's text. The bill, which came to be known as Bill 27 and became law in July 2016, essentially turns a mental illness (Gender Identity Disorder) into a Human Right, with all the implications that will have for individuals, businesses and religious organizations that do not subscribe to LGBT ideology. It is noteworthy that Herbert is a strident gay-activist. On his own MLA website, he posts an article entitled, "Chandra Herbert was the first gay B.C. MLA to adopt a child while serving in the legislature". Chandra Herbert's drive to redefine human rights to allow LGBT abuses and domination to spread reveals a personal vendetta against Natural Moral Law and those who uphold it.
As a party, the NDP's official position is pro-abortion. It was the NDP government, elected in 1990, that introduced regulations within the province's Health Act, to force hospitals within each region of the province to provide "abortion services", even where the hospital board of directors had voted against the practice. In 2001, the ruling NDP government issued one of the most radical pro-abortion resolutions ever seen in North America which included increased funding for the medical training of abortionists; enhanced access to abortifacient morning-after pills; and increased fees for abortionists. The NDP also passed the "bubble zone" law t to prevent pro-life protests in front of abortuaries. The BC NDP is also opposed to traditional family values. Its constitution includes a "Lesbian-Gay-Bisexual-Transgendered Caucus" within the party.

| Marched in, or endorsed, a Gay Pride Parade Gay Pride festivals are controversial, often feature mock sex acts in public and are offensive to many, perhaps most, Canadians. As such it is inaprropriate for an elected representative to endorse one side of this socially divisive issue. Elected officials are supposed to represent ALL their consituents, not just the politically correct ones. |

| Bill 27 - 3rd reading of an Act to amend the BC Human Rights Code to add the LGBT-invented phrase "gender identity or expression" as a prohibited ground of discrimination. This totalitarian Bill, introduced by BC Liberal Justice Minister Suzanne Anton, legally invents a new breed of humans out of those suffering from Gender Identity Disorder. The new law threatens to punish people who refuse to recognize or affirm transsexual delusions and alter-egos, considering such refusal to be a violation of "human rights". [Passed unanimously on July 25, 2016 by all 70 MLAs who cast a vote] |

| Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion?

| 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. | -- |
