Candidate, Lyall Sanders
Centrist Party of Canada Party | Scarborough Southwest, ON
CLC rating: Pro-abortion
Light Rating
Rating Comments: Centrist Party of Canada policy is officially pro-abortion, as cloaked in the following statement from the party's website: "We consider reproductive rights to be a personal decision of women."
Disturbingly, Centrist Party policy on women's issues exclusively uses the word "gender" when referring to the biological state of being a woman. This could be an unintended effect of the propagandized misuse of the word "gender" by Transgender ideologues to replace the proper biological word "sex".
In addition, Centrist Party policy favours a quota system for all parties, under which candidates would be selected based on numerical targets reflecting their sex, rather than on merit.
The Centrist Party also intends to create hate-speech laws to protect people against hate speech, but does not define exactly what hate speech is. This should be a concern for people of faith whose moral principles might fall under someone else's definition of hate speech.
To its credit, the Centrist Party explicitly supports parental rights in education and acknowledges marriage as the union of one man and one woman.
