CLC rating: Unknown on abortion, Against radical sex-ed, Supports transgender ideology;
Rating Comments: She did not respond to CLC's 2022 election questionnaire. Therefore her views on abortion and euthanasia are unknown. However, in an email to a voter, she expressed strong disagreement with Kathleen Wynne's radical sex curriculum. On the negative side, media reports stated that Skelly voted in favour of the City of Hamilton's transsexual bathroom bill, a dangerous law which will grant biological males the legal right to access female washrooms, changerooms and showers, thus violating the privacy and security rights of women and young girls, and putting them at greater risk of assault from male predators who can pretend to be "transgendered" in order to get in close quarters with female victims.
Previous Occupation: Hamilton City Councillor
Percentage in last election: 46.2% (2022)
Victory margin last election: 23.5% (2022)

Explicit 2010/2015 sex education curriculum
The Ontario Liberal government of Kathleen Wynne & Dalton McGuinty introduced a sex ed curriculum for the 2010 school year that would have forced public & Catholic elementary schools to encourage masturbation, celebrate homosexuality and gender identity confusion, and teach about anal and oral intercourse. The curriculum sought to give gay-positive teaching on homosexual relationships by Grade 3. In Grade 5 children would be taught that homosexuality is inborn and cannot be changed, a claim that has no scientific backing whatsoever. In Grade 6 it would give instructions on the pleasures of masturbation and discussed vaginal lubrication. In grade 7 children would be taught about "oral" and "anal sex". Thanks to public outcry from parents and religious leaders, this dangerous curriculum was "postponed" by the government. However, once Kathleen Wynne received a strong Liberal majority and the threat of an election was past, she announced that the controversial curriculum would be implemented in September 2015. Since the original preview of the curriculum in 2010, it has come to light that it was written under the direction of a man, Benjamin Levin, who has confessed to child pornography related charges. That makes sense given the explicit, age-inappropriate nature of the curriculum. It is feared by many parents and education observers that the curriculum may have been designed to 'groom' children so as to make them available for sex. Other parties with whom the Liberal government consulted to formulate this program included radical gay activists groups like Gay Ontario (now Queer Ontario) and Egale Canada. [Jan. 2010-present]
Opposes ok
Bill 150, to eliminate voter fraud in internal party elections, second reading
This bill, officially called the ‘Ensuring Transparency and Integrity in Political Party Elections Act’, aimed to eliminate the voter fraud, ballot-box stuffing, falsified ballots and other rigging of votes that has been commonplace in the PC Party of Ontario with respect to candidate nomination elections, Party President and Executive Committee votes, wherein the party establishment cheats in order to rig the vote for its preferred candidate, or to block candidates they do not like. Those who oppose this bill can only object because they wish to continue conducting voter fraud. Passed 2nd reading Dec 12, 2019 by a vote 95-0.
Yes ok
Bill 12, Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccinations in the Education and Healthcare Sectors, second reading
This bill was crafted to compel workers in the education and healthcare fields to submit to being injected with the abortion-tainted Covid-19 vaccines even against their will, or suffer discriminatory measures from their employers, which could have led to unemployment and poverty. This coercive bill to force people to choose between their conscience and their livelihood amounts to a legislative attack on democacy in Ontario. Defeated at 2nd reading on October 21, 2021 by a vote of 34-16.
No ok
Bill 3, An Act to prohibit harassment based on enforcement or adoption of public health measures relating to COVID-19, second reading
This tyrannical bill, introduced by Ontario NDP leader Andrea Horwath, aimed to muzzle and punish the free speech of Ontarians who refuse to kowtow to the increasingly harsh and unscientific Covid public health decrees. The bill would create as-yet undefined and arbitrarily-designated "safe zones" in which any suggestion of alternative views or evidence that contradicts the government-enforced Covid mandate narrative could result in crippling fines of up to $25,000. With this bill, the NDP, along with the sole Ontario Green Party MPP, has revealed its savage attack on free speech and dissenting views in the public square and is showing ever-clearer signs of its socialist ideological pedigree of top-down totalitarian government. This Orwellian bill was defeated at 2nd Reading on Nov. 4, 2021 by a vote 46 to 20.
No ok
Bill 89, to protect the right of all Ontarians to equal treatment without discrimination because of religious expression, second reading
This common-sense bill, officially called the Protecting Ontario's Religious Diversity Act, 2022, was introduced by pro-life PC MPP Sam Oosterhoff, and seeks to amend the Human Rights Code to specify that every person has a right to equal treatment without discrimination because of religious expression with respect to services, accommodation, contracting, employment, union and professional association membership, etc. Passed 2nd reading on March 30, 2022 by a vote of 65-0.
Supported ok
Motion 36 - To expand OHIP coverage to include universal access to all prescription contraception.
This motion would have expanded the scope of the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) to cover the cost of all prescription contraceptives, including oral hormone pills, copper IUDs, implants and the abortifacient drug called Plan B. This motion was defeated on Nov. 30, 2023, by a vote of 61-23. The voting broke down along party lines with the Ontario PCs opposing this free, taxpayer-funded contraception plan, while the support for the scheme came from NDP and Liberal MPPs.

Here are quotes from Donna Skelly on various life and family issues:

Expressing her opposition to Kathleen Wynne's radical sex ed curriculum, which promotes masturbation, anal and oral sex to young children:  "I would like to address your questions with this letter reaffirming my commitment to the family, my position against the sex education curriculum and my position for religious freedom.

Jim, as a conservative and a person of Catholic upbringing I believe in the family. I want to see families thrive. This can only happen when they are supported, not hindered by government policy.

As a parent, I am very disturbed by the way that McGuinty-Wynne Liberals have treated people of faith in our province, particularly in the education system where they have pushed their agenda onto our children.

Let me state unequivocally, as I said in tonight?s all-candidates debate in Waterdown, that I am against the graphic sex ed curriculum. Again, as a parent, I too am horrified that this type of material would be included in the curriculum taught to such young children.

Furthermore, I believe that the school board and teachers should respect parents. That?s certainly what I would expect as a parent."
[Email response to constituent, June 2014]
