Ida Li Preti
Toronto Catholic District School Board - ON
Electoral District: Ward 03
Bio
CLC rating: Not Supportable
Rating Comments: On May 6, 2021, TrusteeLi Preti shamefully voted in favour of three anti-Catholic motions, advanced by lgbt activists within the board, to use the TCDSB as a vehicle to promote the acceptance and celebration of homosexual lifestyles and LGBT ideologies to impressionable students. The motions, which ultimately passed, sought to proclaim June as gay "Pride Month" and to fly homosexual Pride flag at every Catholic school throughout June.
In 2020, Trustee Li Preti voted against the moral doctrine of her own professed Catholic Faith by supporting a similar proposal to celebrate, throughout the TCDSB, the homosexualist/transsexualist tumult known as "Pride Month".
No response to CLC's 2018 election questionnaire. She defeated the dissenting Catholic incumbent trustee, Sal Piccininni, in the 2018 municipal election.
When Li Preti was interviewed by a left-wing Marxist, anti-Catholic rag called "School Magazine Education Action Toronto", she apparently "sidestepped" a question it posed about whether she supported returning to the radical sex curriculum of Kathleen Wynne and convicted pedophile Benjajmin Levin, commenting instead that "the provincial government should focus on math and literacy". This holds out a sliver of hope for Li Preti in terms of moral uprightness.

| To add transgender ideology to the Code of Conduct, 1st reading In total opposition to Catholic doctrine, this motion sought to add the anti-Christian terms ‘Gender Identity’ and ‘Gender Expression’ to the Code of Conduct, along with ‘Marital Status’ and ‘Family Status’ which are also problematic terms for different reasons. Adding Gender Ideology to the Code of Conduct will give rise to male teachers and students having permission to come to school dressed up as the opposite sex and demanding that everyone else refer to them with personal pronouns that do not match their biological reality. This anti-Catholic motion was passed 8 to 4 [November 7, 2019]. |

| Vote on declaring June as Gay Pride Month throughout the Toronto Catholic District School Board (2020) The homosexualist/transsexualist pride parade and its attendant month-long "celebration" throughout June totally contradict both Catholic Church teaching and human biology in relation to marriage, sexuality, and the nature of human beings. It celebrates "gay" sex-acts, transvestitism and other fetishes, and transsexual mutilation, promoting these abuses and perversions - even to children - as normal, natural, healthy and perfectly moral. The parade includes mock sex acts, sexual bondage and sadomasochism. It is a scandal for any Catholic to be seen supporting it, much less Catholic school trustees and teachers, who work as agents of the Church, promoting "Pride Month" and the prolongation of these obscenities. The proposal was defeated on a 6-6 tie vote. (May 7, 2020) |

| Motion to fly the International Pro-Life Flag at the TCDSB This wonderful pro-life and truly Catholic motion, introduced by faithful TCDSB Trustee Mike Del Grande and seconded by Trustee Garry Tanuan, sought to have the International Pro-Life Flag fly throughout the entire month of May at the Catholic Education Centre and at every TCDSB school; to offically express support for the annual National March for Life in Ottawa; and to commit the TCDSB curriculum to focus exclusively on pro-life studies on the date, and for the duration, of the National March for Life. Outrageously, this motion was defeated by a vote of 8 opposed and 2 in favour, with 2 other Trustees being absent, on April 23, 2024. |

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Ida Li Preti on 2018.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion*? (*Note: a surgical or medical intervention designed to prevent the death of the mother but which results in the unintended and undesired death of the pre-born child, is not an abortion) | no response |
| Will you work to ensure that your Catholic school board enacts a policy requiring all agents and employees of the board to uphold the rights of custodial parents to direct and control the education of, and any medical treatment provided to, their dependent children attending its schools? | no response |
| Will you work against any attempt to expand the sex-ed program in the Catholic Schools which is contrary to Church teaching, such as the one which included oral sex, masturbation and homosexuality, recently offered by the Ministry? | No (based on voting record) |
| Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is an infection that is transmitted through sex. Will you therefore oppose HPV vaccination in schools because it sends the message to students, teachers and parents that obedience to Church teaching on abstinence before marriage is neither expected nor necessary? | no response |
| Will you actively promote and defend the teaching of Catholic doctrine, the importance of prayer and a regular sacramental life? | No (based on voting record) |
| Will you work to ensure that educational materials that enter the premises of Catholic schools (e.g., library resources, curriculum texts, awareness campaigns, flyers) and all approved school activities are consistent with and do not undermine the morality and teachings of the Church? | No (based on voting record) |
| Will you work to ensure that Catholic schools do not invite guest speakers who have publicly expressed positions that contradict the morality and teaching of the Church, no matter how great their achievements in politics, business, sports, science or the arts? | no response |
| Will you personally uphold and work toward the public promotion of total fidelity to the faith and moral teachings of the Catholic Church? (Current examples include the illicitness of abortion, contraception and homosexual practice) | No (based on voting record) |

In brazon defiance of Christian morality, the Catholic Catechism, and the pastoral correction recently administered by Archbishop Thomas Collins, Toronto Catholic school board trustee Ida Li Preti seeks to legitimize the sinful lifestyles and practices embraced under the anti-Catholic term LGBT, effectively implying that Catholic moral teaching is "homophobia".
