Bio

Tony Wakeham
Caution
Caution
CLC rating: Pro-LGBT ideology; Unknown on abortion
Rating Comments: Wakeham has not expressed where he stands on the right to life for unborn children.
On a more positive note, after receiving tremendous parental backlash when it came to light that a Liberal-era policy was denying parents the right to access their children's health information upon turning age 12, he came out strongly against the policy and promised to repeal it.

Here are quotes from Tony Wakeham on various life and family issues:

Wakeham affirms parental rights and pledges to repeal a Liberal-era policy that denied parents access to their children's health records upon turning age 12:  "Parents are the primary protectors of their children. Our government believes that parents or guardians should always have the right to access their children’s healthcare information....will introduce legislative changes this fall to ensure that parental access to their children’s medical records is protected” in the province.... When it comes to our children, parents and guardians should be part of the conversation from the beginning and not informed after the fact." [National Post, "N.L. premier to reverse policy that blocks parents' access to their children’s medical records", Jun 25, 2026]
