Here is Helen Shwery's voting record relating to life and family issues:
Votes, Surveys and Policy Decision | Vote | Score |
---|---|---|
Motion to eliminate 'female only' washrooms in public building(s) This motion was introduced to normalize transgender ideology, so that the distinction between male and female is eradicated. It would also force women and girls to share intimate spaces, including washrooms, change rooms, and showers, with partially or fully unclothed men, some of whom could potentially be peeping toms or seeking to commit sexual assault on unsuspecting girls. |
Opposed |

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Helen Shwery on 2023.
Question | Response |
---|---|
Organizations like Planned Parenthood (PP) routinely counsel women to have abortions, and increasingly, are involved in dispensing the chemical abortion pill. Given that abortion is a controversial practice that many taxpayers in your municipality find abhorrent, do you agree that PP and similar “sexual health agencies" should not receive taxpayer funds through the municipality? | -- |
There has been a move in some municipal jurisdictions to pass bylaws which establish censorship zones, also called “bubble zones”, around abortion facilities. These unconstitutional censorship zones make it illegal to express peaceful pro-life speech, including silent prayer, on taxpayer-owned public sidewalks within the vicinity of abortion facilities and pharmacies which dispense abortion pills. If elected, would you vote to oppose such a censorship bylaw? | -- |
Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | -- |
Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | -- |
