Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision Vote Score
Illegal & discriminatory vote to prevent the appointment of a Catholic to Toronto's Public Health Board, on the basis of her religious beliefs
This motion, spearheaded by Councillor Joe Mihevc, was designed to discriminate against a Catholic School trustee Ms. Angela Kennedy, on the basis of her Christian beliefs regarding abortion and human sexuality. Employment discrimination on the basis of religious beliefs is illegal under the Ontario Human Rights Code. Trustee Kennedy had been appointed by a special committee, but a cabal of socially-liberal councillors, led by Mihevc, circumvented the normal appointment process by calling a vote and fearmongering against Kennedy about her religious beliefs. Trustee Kennedy was immensely qualified for the position, with 45 years experience as a registered nurse, and having undergone a rigorous application process. Catholics make up 33 percent of Toronto's population and it is only fair that they are given a single solitary seat at the table. The cabal of councillors hid their thinly veiled anti-Catholic bigotry behind weak arguments that barely concealed their contempt for her Christian beliefs. Sadly the discriminatory vote passed 20 to 17. [March 31, 2015]

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Michael Thompson 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? no response
Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? no response
Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? no response
