| Illegal & discriminatory vote to prevent the appointment of a Catholic to Toronto's Public Health Board, on the basis of her religious beliefs This motion, spearheaded by Councillor Joe Mihevc, was designed to discriminate against a Catholic School trustee Ms. Angela Kennedy, on the basis of her Christian beliefs regarding abortion and human sexuality. Employment discrimination on the basis of religious beliefs is illegal under the Ontario Human Rights Code. Trustee Kennedy had been appointed by a special committee, but a cabal of socially-liberal councillors, led by Mihevc, circumvented the normal appointment process by calling a vote and fearmongering against Kennedy about her religious beliefs. Trustee Kennedy was immensely qualified for the position, with 45 years experience as a registered nurse, and having undergone a rigorous application process. Catholics make up 33 percent of Toronto's population and it is only fair that they are given a single solitary seat at the table. The cabal of councillors hid their thinly veiled anti-Catholic bigotry behind weak arguments that barely concealed their contempt for her Christian beliefs. Sadly the discriminatory vote passed 20 to 17. [March 31, 2015] |

Here are the answers for the questionnaire as provided by Shelley Carroll on 2022.
| Question | Response |
|---|---|
| Do you acknowledge that human life begins at conception (fertilization)? | survey not yet sent |
| Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? | survey not yet sent |
| 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? | survey not yet sent |
| 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? | survey not yet sent |
