MLA Laura Ross
Saskatchewan Party, Regina Rochdale, SK
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-abortion
Rating Comments: When taunted to express her position on abortion, MLA Laura Ross said she "will always stand up for women's rights", which is a euphemism in this context for being pro-abortion. MLA Ross' comment was contained in a tweet triumphantly forwarded on May 13, 2021 by the rabidly pro-abortion NDP MLA who cornered her on this question, Jennifer Bowes.
MLA Ross did not respond to CLC’s 2020 election questionnaire.
To her credit, in October 2023, MLA Ross voted in favour of a wonderful 'Parents Bill of Rights' law that will require schools to obtain parental consent before their children can use opposite sex names or opposite sex pronouns at school. The bill, which was voted into law, also included other valuable protections against LGBT and sexual grooming in the classroom, which has become rampant over the past decade.

| Bill 137 — The Education (Parents’ Bill of Rights) Amendment Act, 2023 In a groundbreaking victory for parental rights and child protection in Canada, the Saskatchewan provincial government passed its Parents’ Bill of Rights, ensuring that parental authority is respected, family values are prioritized over politically-correct / state-approved values, and students are better protected from falling prey to LGBT grooming and woke ideological indoctination. Premier Scott Moe even invoked the Notwithstanding Clause to shield the pro-family legislation from the whims of unelected, activist judges who might try to label it “transphobic”. Bill 137 passed by a huge vote margin of 40 - 12 on October 20, 2023. |
