Here are quotes from David West on various life and family issues:
West promoted LGBT ideology and criticized a fellow councillor for applauding Pierre Poilievre's statement against LGBT indoctrination in schools: "I want to assure everyone that lives in Richmond Hill that our council believes it is important to create safe and inclusive spaces for all members of the LGBTQ2IA+ community and for all residents. I encourage all members of council, including deputy mayor Chan, to better educate themselves and invite organizations like Pflag to come in and meet with them so they can better understand the issues their members face on a daily basis and what they can do to be better allies.” ["Richmond Hill Deputy Mayor Godwin Chan’s apology ‘not enough,’ says Pflag York Region", YorkRegion.com, Nov. 14, 2023]
Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by David West on August 8, 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Organizations like Planned Parenthood (PP) routinely counsel women to have abortions. 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 |
| 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? | No response |
