Trustee Tanya Da Silva
Simcoe Muskoka Catholic District School Board, ON
Electoral District: Bradford West Gwillimbury/Innisfil
Bio
CLC rating: Caution
Rating Comments: On her facebook in Sep 2026, she posted glowing praise for a pro-LGBTQ propagandist by the name of Dr. Andrew B. Campbell. Known as "Dr. ABC", he is an Assistant Professor at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), a radical organization that is notorious for indoctrinating people in teachers college to embrace and celebrate transgenderism and homosexuality, and to commit to carrying that pro-LGBTQ enthusiasm into their future classrooms so they can infect their students with it. Dr. ABC gives motivational talks on "equity", "inclusion", "diversity", "homophobia", "transphobia", and other discredited euphemisms for modern, revolutionary marxism. Da Silva did not respond to CLC's 2026 or 2022 candidate surveys.
Percentage in last election: 45.6% (2022)

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Tanya Da Silva on Sep 4, 2026 & Oct 24, 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Will you work to ensure that Catholic schools do not invite guest speakers who have publicly expressed positions that contradict the morality and teaching of the Church, no matter how great their achievements in politics, business, sports, science or the arts? | no response |
| Will you work to ensure that educational materials that enter the premises of Catholic schools (e.g., library resources, curriculum texts, awareness campaigns, flyers) and all approved school activities are consistent with and do not undermine the morality and teachings of the Church? | no response |
| Will you work to ensure that your Catholic school board enacts a policy requiring all agents and employees of the board to uphold the rights of custodial parents to direct and control the education of, and any medical treatment provided to, their dependent children attending its schools? | no response |
| Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion*? (*Note: a surgical or medical intervention designed to prevent the death of the mother but which results in the unintended and undesired death of the pre-born child, is not an abortion) | no response |
| Will you work to ensure that your Board publicly promotes total fidelity to the faith and moral teachings of the Catholic Church? (Current examples include the illicitness of abortion, contraception and homosexual practice) | no response |
| Will you oppose sex-ed programs which are contrary to Church teaching? | no response |
| Given that the Gay Pride flag is a controversial political symbol which contradicts Church teaching on marriage & human sexuality, will you oppose any and all proposals to fly the Gay Pride flag at Catholic schools, at the board office, or to acknowledge and celebrate June as Pride month? | no response |
