CLC rating: Educable
Rating Comments: Purves gave a mixed bag of answers to CLC's 2026 municipal candidate questionnaire. He rightly opposes diverting scarce municipal taxpayer dollars to abortion advocacy organizations like Planned Parenthood. However, he also (wrongly) supports the idea of censorship legislation to ban peaceful, pro-life expression on taxpayer-owned public sidewalks.

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Alec Purves on August 7th2026.
| 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? | yes |
| There has been a move in some municipal jurisdictions to pass bylaws which establish censorship zones, also called “bubble zones”, around abortion facilities. These unconstitutional censorship zones make it illegal to express peaceful pro-life speech, including silent prayer, on taxpayer-owned public sidewalks within the vicinity of abortion facilities and pharmacies which dispense abortion pills. If elected, would you vote to oppose such a censorship bylaw, if it were ever proposed? | no |
| Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | no |
| Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | pro-life |
