Candidate, James Ryan
NDP Party, Moncton Centre, NB
Bio
CLC rating: Pro-abortion, anti-parental rights
Rating Comments: Based on past-NDP Leader Dominic Cardy's declaration during the 2014 election campaign that all NDP MLAs must vote pro-abortion, even if it means violating their consciences and/or religious beliefs. To the best of our knowledge, this NDP policy has never been rescinded and is still in force. Under this anti-democratic edict, no NDP MLA would dare go against the Party's pro-abortion policy for fear of being thrown out of caucus, and no prospective candidate is allowed to run under the NDP banner unless they support abortion. Former NDP leader Cardy said at the time that, if elected Premier, his government would support funneling public tax dollars towards abortions committed at private, for-profit killing centres.

| Are there any circumstances under which you believe a woman should have access to abortion?
