Rating Comments: In May 2023, Trustee Alexander rightly voted against a scandalous Motion to fly the anti-Catholic, homosexual/transgender Pride flag at the YCDSB's Catholic Education Centre for the entire month of June.

Although Trustee Alexander gave perfect answers to CLC's 2022 election survey, those answers were seriously contradicted by a statement he gave to the local newspaper on September 16. He told the news outlet that he would champion "diversity" as a "core value" of the Catholic school system. After so many years of following the LGBT infiltration into the separate school system, CLC understands very well that the secular doctrine of "diversity" is code word for promoting homosexuality and transgenderism. In the same statement, Alexander promised to promote this secular "core value" by ensuring that "in all its practices, including hiring" the school board "values the uniqueness of all individuals, including their... sexual orientation...", amongst other factors like race, ethnicity, gender, and socio-economic status. To any reasonable observer, what this statement means is that Trustee Alexander will ensure the school board hires people who identify as homosexual and who are living in an objectively sinful lifestyle which contradicts Catholic moral teaching. CLC also knows from experience that when such individuals work in a Catholic school, they tend to behave as militant LGBTQ+ activists, constantly working to undermine the Catholic Church's teaching, to convince students to reject biblical teaching on marriage and human sexuality, and to persecute faithful Catholic teachers who object to teaching pro-LGBTQ+ ideology.

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Frank Alexander on Sept 27, 2022.

Question 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) Yes
Will you actively promote and defend the teaching of Catholic doctrine, the importance of prayer and a regular sacramental life? Yes
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? Yes
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? Yes
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) Yes
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? Yes
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? Yes
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? Yes
Will you work to ensure that your Board publicly promotes total fidelity to the faith and moral teachings of the Catholic Church? (Current examples include the illicitness of abortion, contraception and homosexual practice) Yes
Will you oppose sex-ed programs which are contrary to Church teaching? Yes
Given that the Gay Pride flag is a controversial political symbol which contradicts Church teaching on marriage & human sexuality, will you oppose any and all proposals to fly the Gay Pride flag at Catholic schools, at the board office, or to acknowledge and celebrate June as Pride month? Yes
