MPP Laura Smith
Progressive Conservative Party, Thornhill, ON
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-transgender ideology; Unknown on abortion
Rating Comments: In an email response to a concerned constituent, MPP Smith revealed her utter capitulation to transgender ideology, indicating that she supports Ontario Bill 42, which seeks to invent a so-called "Gender Affirming Health Care Advisory Committee" that will facilitate the chemical and surgical mutilation of both adults and children who suffer from a delusional condition called Gender Identity Disorder. In the email, MPP Smith even goes so far as to whitewash this butchery under the sanitizing rhetoric of "medically necessary gender affirming procedures".

| Motion 36 - To expand OHIP coverage to include universal access to all prescription contraception. This motion would have expanded the scope of the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) to cover the cost of all prescription contraceptives, including oral hormone pills, copper IUDs, implants and the abortifacient drug called Plan B. This motion was defeated on Nov. 30, 2023, by a vote of 61-23. The voting broke down along party lines with the Ontario PCs opposing this free, taxpayer-funded contraception plan, while the support for the scheme came from NDP and Liberal MPPs. |
