CLC rating: Pro-abortion
Rating Comments: Domenic Cardy was Leader of the New Brunswick NDP until January 2017, when he resigned from that position, then later the same month, in a surprise move, joined the PC party. Previously, while still NDP Leader, Cardy issued a declaration during the 2014 election campaign that all NDP MLAs must vote pro-abortion, even if it means violating their consciences and/or religious beliefs. Under Cardy's anti-democratic edict, it stands to reason that no NDP MLA would have dared go against the Party's pro-abortion policy for fear of being thrown out of caucus. At that time, the relentlessly pro-abortion Cardy also stated that, if elected, his NDP government would, "on day one" in office, repeal the existing rule that requires a sign-off by two doctors to certify that an abortion is 'medically necessary' before it can qualify for funding by taxpayers.
In October 2022, a disgruntled Cardy resigned his position as Minister of Education with the PC government and soon afterward was expelled from the PC Party altogether and sat as an Independent MLA. Then, in August 2024, Mr. Cardy formed a new federal party, which he called the Canadian Future Party.
