Here is Leslyn Lewis's voting record relating to life and family issues:

Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision Vote Score
Motion 41 - a second attempt to end coercive federal Covid vaccine mandates
This pro-freedom Motion, made by Conservative Party MP Michael Barrett, called on the Trudeau Liberal government to immediately lift all federal vaccine mandates, which have resulted in the termination of thousands of federally regulated employees, restrictions on the rights of Canadians to travel freely, and impediments to the free flow of goods across the Canadian border. This principled, scientifically-based, and freedom-defending Motion was tragically defeated on March 24, 2022 by a vote of 212 against to 117 in favour.

Bill C-11, to apply censorship & total government control over the internet, 3rd reading
This bill was written to end free speech on the internet, and to give the Trudeau Liberals soviet-style, authoritarian control over the information Canadians are allowed to read, see and hear. It places all internet and social media content under the bureaucratic control of the biased, far-left CRTC (Candian Radio-television & Telecommunications Commission). This law gives the agency the power to take down content that Liberals don't like, ban users who post it, and enforce algorithms that move Marxist left-wing content to the top of search results and suggested social media posts, thus cementing the power of government to indoctrinate the public, to bury Liberal scandals and keep corruption out of sight of Canadians, and even to influence elections to favour the Liberals. Christian, pro-life and conservative content will certainly be supressed and, in many cases, automatically blocked by algorithms. Bill C-11 passed on June 21, 2022 by a vote of 208 Yeas to 117 Nays.

Bill C-311 - 2nd Reading, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (violence against pregnant women)
A principled bill introduced by stalwart pro-life Conservative MP Cathay Wagantall, C-311 sought to establish in law that knowingly assaulting a pregnant woman and causing physical or emotional harm to a pregnant woman are to be considered aggravating circumstances for sentencing purposes. This modest protection for pregnant women and acknowledgement of their special status as expectant mothers was supported by the entire Conservative caucus, but was defeated along predictable party lines by Justin Trudeau's pro-abortion Liberal government and the other left-wing parties at 2nd reading on June 14, 2023 by a vote of 205 - 113.
Supported ok
Opposition Motion: Opioid Crisis - Motion calling on the Trudeau Liberal government to reverse it's hard-drug decriminalization experiment in BC and instead fund addiction treatment and recovery programs.
This sensible and compassionate Opposition Motion, sponsored by Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre, called on the Justin Trudeau Liberal government to reverse it's disastrous 2022 policy that decriminalized all hard drugs in the province of British Columbia. Under the Liberal scheme, there are now no arrests, charges or seizures for personal possession of up to 2.5 grams of highly-addictive drugs like cocaine and heroin, or for potentially lethal opioids like fentanyl. The resulting increase in opioid deaths seems not to have deterred the Trudeau Liberals from continuing to push their "safe injection" ideology, as they have committed another $74 million to further entrench and intensify their experimental program. Sadly, this rational and laudable Conservative Motion was defeated on May 29, 2023 by a completely partisan vote of 209 - 113, with only the Conservatives suppporting the Motion, while the Liberals and all the other left-wing parties - NDP, Bloc Quebecois, and Green - opposed it.
Supported ok
Bill C-314 - 2nd Reading, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (medical assistance in dying)
An excellent bill introduced by pro-life Conservative MP Ed Fast, C-314 sought to stop the Trudeau government from expanding its euthanasia regime to include the killing of Canadians who request assisted suicide based solely on their psychiatric or psychological condition. Bill C-314 would have ensured that vulnerable people who suffer with mental illness may be treated with positive, life-affirming therapies instead of being offered a deadly “final solution” to their condition. This compassionate and life-protecting bill was supported by the entire Conservative caucus and - astonishingly - by the generally pro-euthanasia NDP and Green Party caucuses as well, and even by eight self-possessed Liberal MPs; nevertheless, it was opposed and ultimately defeated by the vast majority of pro-death Justin Trudeau Liberals, along with the entire radical Bloc Québécois caucus. The vote took place at 2nd reading of the bill on October 18, 2023, with the bill being defeated by a fairly narrow vote margin of 167 - 150.

Bill C-278 - 2nd Reading, An Act to prevent the imposition by the federal government of vaccination mandates for employment and travel
Introduced by pro-life Conservative MP Dean Allison, the medical freedom Bill C-278 aimed to prevent agencies of the Government of Canada from infringing upon the Charter of Rights and Freedoms by requiring, as a condition of employment, that federal employees receive a vaccine against COVID-19. In addition, the bill sought to prevent the government from imposing travel bans that would prohibiting a person from boarding an aircraft, a train or a vessel solely on the basis of not receiving a vaccine against COVID-19. It should be noted that all COVID-19 vaccines are abortion-tainted, having been formulated and/or tested using the ghoulish practice of exploiting the remains of an aborted baby's body. Bill C-278 was defeated at 2nd Reading on October 25, 2023 by a vote of 206 - 114, with all 114 affirmative votes coming from the Conservative Party, while every single vote against this freedom-defending bill was cast by the pro-death Liberal, NDP, Bloc Québécois, and Green parties.

Motion to end coercive vaccine mandates
This pro-freedom Motion, introduced by the Conservative Party's Interim Leader Candice Bergen, called on the Trudeau Liberal government to table a plan for ending its punitive, unscientific, and cruel Covid restrictions - including the mandating of abortion-tainted Covid vaccines - by February 28, 2022. Shamefully, the Motion was defeated on February 14, 2022 by a vote of 185 against to 151 in favour.
Supported ok
Emergencies Act: To grant Justin Trudeau totalitarian, police state powers so that he could shut down a peaceful protest against unconstitutional federal mandates forcing Canadians to take abortion-tainted COVID injections, regardless of conscientious objections.
The Emergencies Act (i.e. martial law), was used to shut down a peaceful freedom protest by blue collar workers in Ottawa. Trudeau seized the bank accounts of hundreds of peaceful protesters without due process, arrested them, and ordered police action which saw protestors trampled by horses, shot with rubber bullets, beaten with batons, and pepper sprayed while peacefully demanding the return of their rights and freedoms after 2 years of government oppression. Sadly, it passed by a vote of 185 to 151 on February 21, 2022.

Here are quotes from Leslyn Lewis on various life and family issues:

Expressing her principled revulsion at the horror of "sex-selective" abortion, which is the killing of unborn children solely because of their sex, and often targeting girls:  "How can someone claim to be a feminist and support sex selective abortion? There is clear evidence that baby girls are targeted in the womb just because they are the “wrong sex”. We cannot continue to justify the misogynistic practices of sex selective abortion in Canada." [Twitter posting, @LeslynLewis, April 14, 2021]

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Leslyn Lewis on Aug. 2021.

Question Response
Do you believe that life begins at conception (fertilization)? --
Do you support the conscience rights of health care professionals to refuse to do or refer for medical procedures which they oppose? --
If elected, would you vote in favour of a law to protect all unborn children from the time of conception (fertilization) onward? --
If elected, will you vote to pass laws protecting people from euthanasia and assisted-suicide, and vote to reject laws that would expand euthanasia and assisted-suicide? --
Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion? (note: Medical treatments to save the life of a mother and which result in the UNINTENDED death of her unborn child, are NOT abortions. Eg. in case of tubal pregnancy or cervical cancer) --
