Councillor Paul Smith
Strathcona County (Sherwood Park) - AB
Electoral District: Ward 5
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-lgbt ideology
Rating Comments: On September 14, 2019, Councillor Smith voted to pass a reckless and draconain by-law that bans all forms of counseling that radical LGBT activists disingenuously define as "conversion therapy". The ban is likely to apply to all corporations, churches and non-profit associations within Stratchona County / Sherwood Park. This totalitarian ban now makes it illegal for people who experience unwanted gender identity confusion or same-sex attraction from being able to procure either clinical psychotherapy or spirtual counseling to overcome their unwanted condition or to leave the transsexual/gay lifestyle.
