At the April 23, 2024 TCDSB Board meeting, the anti-Catholic Trustee for Ward 5, Maria Rizzo, slagged a pro-life motion to promote the right-to-life for unborn children as "nasty politics worming its way into our board room... our classrooms". In her obfuscatory speech, this trustee who voted in favour of flying the LGBT Pride Flag throughout the month of June, insinuated that flying the International Pro-life Flag throughout the month of May and provide pro-life classroom instructions would interfere with teachers who are struggling "to teach reading and writing and mathematics". These are the very same arguments that parents gave her in 2021 when they asked her to vote against flying the LGBT Pride flag and celebrating Gay Pride Month in June. Yet, she had the shameless audacity to repeat those same arguments against the pro-life flag, which she rejected for the homosexual and transgender Pride Flag. Wow! Such shameless hypocrisy is difficult to behold.

This video contains TCDSB Trustee Michael Del Grande's closing remarks to convince his fellow Catholic trustees to vote in favour of his right to life motion. It also records the vote by the board of trustees, which defeated the motion by 8 to 2. Partial transcript of Mike's closing speech: "I'm sure that all my trustee colleagues around the table here would readily identify themselves, if asked, as Catholics who agree with the Catholic Church's unchanging teaching that abortion is a grave evil and that we as Catholics have an obligation to protect the lives of unborn children from this violent and lethal act." "None of us here would argue with Pope Francis' declaration earlier this month that, quote:'The termination of a pregnancy means nothing other than denying human dignity to the most defenceless'.Nor with his unambiguous statement on Sept 15, 2021 that, and I quote: “abortion is more than an issue. Abortion is murder.'End quote. "Therefore, I can think of no legitimate reason why this motion shouldn't pass unanimously. We are a pro-life board and I expect you will all vote in favour of my motion so that the TCDSB does its part to vigorously defend the most marginalized and victimized group in this country, namely children in the womb, who are killed at a rate of 100,000 annually." "We have an opportunity to showcase ourselves as defenders of human rights, in the greatest social justice battle of our day. I trust you will do the right thing this evening, for the children, for our Catholic faith, for God who himself took the form of a defenseless unborn child, and whose divine heart no doubt breaks with every abortion. That’s a holocaust." The Catholic audience erupted in applause when Mike finished his speech, and loudly expressed their anger and displeasure when the Trusteed voted against the motion immediately after.

This hypocritical trustee who told The Catholic Register newspaper that LGBT Pride flags will fly forever at Toronto's Catholic schools throughout the month of June and "cannot be undone", expressed a bizarre, panicked mania over the possibility that pro-life flags might be flown at the same Catholic schools throughout the month of May, as had been proposed earlier in the TCDSB board meeting by his colleague, Trustee Mike Del Grande.

The Toronto "Catholic" school Trustee, Angela Kennedy, shamefully announces she will vote against a right to life motion by her colleague that would have required all Catholic schools to fly the International pro-life flag and would've provided a full day of classroom instruction on the Catholic Church's teachings about abortion, including from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Holy Bible, and Evangelium Vitae by Pope John Paul II. She attacked the right to life motion as "indoctrination" and bizarrely, suggested that passing the pro-life motion would make it impossible to be a faithful follower of Christ.

Magalena Cardillo, a Catholic Toronto mom of five children, including one in her womb, gave a powerful delegation speech in support of Trustee Del Grande's pro-life flag motion, on April 23, 2025.

Daniel Reszczynski gives powerful delegate speech to TCDSB board of trustees highlighting the dire need for pro-life renewal in the board, where, as a teacher, he experienced that 99% of his Catholic students identified as "pro-choice", i.e. pro-abortion.

On April 23, 2024, the heroic Toronto Catholic school Trustee, Mike Del Grande, put forward his motion for every TCDSB school to (a) fly the International Pro-life Flag throughout the month of May, (b) encourage students & teachers to attend the National March For Life, and (c) to provide a full day of classroom instruction on the Church's pro-life teachings, to be drawn from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, the Holy Bible, Pope John Paul II's writings and more. Del Grande's voice was prophetic, speaking life and mercy into a thoroughly secularized school board that no longer vibrantly promotes a culture of life, or Christian moral teachings, and instead, has for years now, followed the culture of death.

CLC's Jack Fonseca interviews climate science expert, Tom Harris, to explain why the agenda to "stop global warming" is a grave threat to preborn human life. Hear the evidence for why a clear nexus exists between the war on carbon dioxide (to "save the planet") and abortion. Learn how powerful global forces are using the fear of "catastrophic" warming to engineer a human depopulation agenda, based on scientific claims that are shaky at best. This interview was conducted at CLC's Ottawa office on March 22, 2023, in front of a live audience.

This was video was created by the organizers of the Recall Rachna Singh campaign in British Columbia. Local voters are fed up with Ms. Singh’s promotion of the highly sexualized LGBT SOGI curriculum in schools. Organizers need volunteer canvassers to help collect the required number of signatures needed to recall Rachna, so they released this short training video to help explain what’s involved, and we’re sharing it with our supporters.

Adam Cooper, Ward 6 Councilor for the City of Cambridge, ON, appeared as a delegation to the Regional Council of Waterloo, in opposition to a proposed by-law amendment that sought to give muncipal by-law enforcers the power to remove citizens from public property and fine them $250 if they are accused of making people who identify as LGBT "feel worried" or "feel troubled". This by-law was opposed by many in the community who recognize that it can be weaponized by LGBT activists and woke municipal staff/councilors to cancel freedom of expression.

Marium Ali, a local representative from the #1MillionMarch4Children and HandsOffOurKids.ca organizations, delegated on September 27, 2023 against a proposed Waterloo Region by-law amendment that sought the power to ban any mode of speech or public protest against LGBT ideology from taking place on Region property, buildings, buses or trains. She explained the thoroughly flawed and subjective nature of "prioritizing hurt feelings" as a grounds for censoring freedom of speech.

While delegating in favour of a Region of Waterloo censorship by-law that would have the effect of banning parental rights protests against LGBT indoctrination in schools, a labour union executive from PSAC, John Bannister, made eye-brow raising comments about "childhood autonomy" and painted parents as evil restrictors of "childhood autonomy" in the arena of sexual education and "their right to their own bodies". This speech was given to Region of Waterloo Council members at the public council meeting on September 27, 2023, in which Councilors were to vote on a censorship by-law that could ban protests and individuals on the basis of being critical of LGBT ideology with respect to "Gender Identity", "Gender Expression" and "Sexual Orientation".

Alan Hohner, Litigation Director at The Democracy Fund, a public interest law firm, delegated to Waterloo Region Councilors on September 27, 2023. He warned them that a proposed, pro-LGBT censorship by-law violated the Charter of Rights & Freedoms, specifically the right to freedom of expression and freedom of association.

CLC’s Josie Luetke powerfully lays out at a Catholic school board meeting yesterday why it should not fly the Pride flag. She explains the sordid creation of the flag and what it actually represents. The meeting was held on June 20 at the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board. “While Jesus told the adulteress to go and sin no more, the flag instead says go and sin some more,” she said.

Mere days after national news broke that an Edmonton Public school teacher harassed and berated a Muslim student for skipping class to avoid an LGBT Pride event, and told the student that if he doesn't celebrated gay Pride, then "You don't belong in Canada", Trudeau promotes the gay Pride flag in schools. The Prime Minister demonstrated total disrespect and contempt for Muslim families, and all traditional faith communities.

At the National March for Life earlier this month, a young woman in white laid down, prostrate, in front of angry, pro-abortion counter-protesters to quietly pray for them, asking God to convert their hearts and save them. “First, I was interceding for them and praying in the spirit, but then God told me to get down, prostrate, and to worship Him,” Rachel Roumelis told Pete Baklinski of Campaign Life Coalition, in an interview following the rally on the Hill.
