CLC rating: Pro-abortion
Rating Comments: Based on then-NDP Leader Dominic Cardy's declaration during the 2014 campaign trail that all NDP MLAs must vote pro-abortion, even if it means violating their consciences and/or religious beliefs. Under this anti-democratic edict, it stands to reason that no NDP MLA will dare go against the Party's pro-abortion policy for fear of being thrown out of caucus. All NDP MLAs will obviously be whipped to vote in favour of killing pre-born children and forcing taxpayers to fund it. The NDP leader has been clear that if elected Premier, his government would support funnelling public tax dollars towards abortions committed at Morgentaler's private, for-profit, killing centre, and to other private abortion businesses that may pop up in future at the prospect of being able to feed at the public trough. The NDP leader also stated that "on day one" after being elected, his government will repeal the existing rule that requires a sign off by two-doctors, certifying that the abortion is 'medically necessary' before it can qualify for funding by taxpayers. Harrison was once a PC MLA in the old Hampton-Kings riding.

Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision | Vote | Score |
---|---|---|
Position on diverting taxpayer $$ towards paying for abortions at Morgentaler's private "clinic" In 2014, the Liberal Party Leader in NB came out against the long-standing ban on public funding for private abortion facilities. For decades, all 3 major parties have agreed that the province shall not fund abortions at private abortion 'clinics'. Only abortions committed at hospitals are publicly funded. After an organized campaign to fund the Morgentaler abortuary, the Liberal Leader came out strongly in favour of fully-funded, abortion-on-demand. |

Position on cancelling the provincial requirement that 2 doctors sign off on the abortion as 'medically necessary' before it gets funded by taxpayers. This is the current, decades old policy of the New Brunswick government. It was agreed upon by all major parties until 2014 when the Liberal Leader suggested this modicum of restriction needs to be removed, in the name of 'a woman's right to choose'. |
