| Vaccinating girls against the sexually-transmitted HPV infection, a policy which gives license to premarital sex and undermines Church teaching on abstinence [2007] This fool-hardy policy would signal to young girls that it's ok to engage in premarital sex, and in fact, that it's expected of them. Besides the moral problems posed, the vaccine itself may be life-threatening. At the time this issue came up in schools across Ontario, the HPV vaccine known as Gardasil had already been linked to 11 deaths of young women and hundreds of hospitalizations in the United States in the first year of its availability. Therefore, an HPV vaccination policy in a Catholic school, serves not only to give licence to sexual promiscuity, but also endangers the lives of female children. It gives them a potentially deadly chemical substance, and a false sense of security that "it's 'safe' to have sex, because I'm 'protected' ". The HPV vaccine is not even close to a guaranteed prevention and actually "protects" against just a small percentage of HPV strains. The only policy that can result in 100% protection against HPV, is abstinence before marriage and fidelity within marriage. That's what Catholic schools should be teaching, rather than promoting false security blankets that encourage risky behaviour. [Oct 2007] |

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Darnell Vrban on September 2014.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Will you personally uphold and work toward the public promotion of total fidelity to the faith and moral teachings of the Catholic Church? (Current examples include the illicitness of abortion, contraception and homosexual practice) | Yes |
| 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? | Yes |
| 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? | Yes |
| Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is an infection that is transmitted through sex. Will you therefore oppose HPV vaccination in schools because it sends the message to students, teachers and parents that obedience to Church teaching on abstinence before marriage is neither expected nor necessary? | Yes |
| Will you actively promote and defend the teaching of Catholic doctrine, the importance of prayer and a regular sacramental life? | Yes |
| Will you work against any attempt to expand the sex-ed program in the Catholic Schools which is contrary to Church teaching, such as the one which included oral sex, masturbation and homosexuality, recently offered by the Ministry? | Yes |
| 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? | Yes |
| 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 |
