Side-by-Side Candidate Comparison in the Riding of St. Catharines

Rating Comments

Bas is very publicly pro-life and would make an excellent member of parliament.

In his response to CLC's 2024 federal by-election questionnaire, the candidate took an ultra-libertarian position by saying that, notwithstanding his personal views about the sanctity of life or when life begins, he does "not believe we should be using representative politics to solve social or moral issues". Given the context of his response, that would include abortion.

Official Liberal Party of Canada policy is pro-abortion and pro-LGBT ideology. In fact, due to a candidate selection process initiated by Justin Trudeau on May 7, 2014 and continued by Mark Carney today, pro-life Canadians are forbidden from running as Liberal Party candidates.

On March 11, 2021, this MP voted to dramatically expand the euthanasia killing regime in Canada under Bill C-7, even extending it to people suffering from mental illness alone.

In June 2021, the MP voted against pro-life Bill C-233, introduced by Conservative MP Cathay Wagantall, to outlaw the horrific practice of sex-selective abortion, in which unborn babies are killed for no other reason than their sex.

Later that month, this MP disgracefully revealed himself to be an enemy of parental rights, and science, by voting to pass Bill C-6, legislation that will jail parents for up to 5 years if they dare to affirm their gender-confused child in their biological sex.
