Kevin Morrison
Toronto Catholic District School Board - ON
Electoral District: Ward 09
Bio
CLC rating: Not Supportable
Rating Comments: On April 23, 2024, Morrison voted against a powerful, and potentially culture-changing right to life motion which would have required schools to fly the International Pro-life Flag throughout the month of May, encouraged teachers and students to attend the National March For Life, and mandated that students receive a full day of pro-life instruction in which the Catechism, Holy Bible and other Church writings would have been studied.
His vote was the height of hypocrisy because in an interview with The Catholic Register newspaper leading up to this vote, he had strongly defended flying the LGBT Pride flag, forever, stating that it "cannot be undone".
In an interview with the Toronto Star, Morison characterized the effort to promote the right to life of unborn children as a “complete waste of our time” and “absolutely bizarre".
This man has demonstrated opposition to a key moral teaching of the Catholic Church, and must be removed from office at the earliest opportunity.

| 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 Kevin Morrison on 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| 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? | Survey not yet sent |
| 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? | Survey not yet sent |
| 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? | Survey not yet sent |
| 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) | Survey not yet sent |
| 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) | Survey not yet sent |
| Will you oppose sex-ed programs which are contrary to Church teaching? | Survey not yet sent |
| 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? | Survey not yet sent |
