Side-by-Side Candidate Comparison in the Riding of Tobique - Mactaquac

Rating Comments

In June 2021, this MP rightly voted in favour of pro-life Bill C-233, introduced by Conservative MP Cathay Wagantall, to outlaw the horrific practice of sex-selective abortion, in which unborn babies are killed for no other reason than their sex.

Also in June 2021, this principled MP voted against Justin Trudeau’s parental prosecution bill, C-6, which seeks to put parents in jail up to 5 years if they dare to affirm their gender-confused child in their biological sex.

Richard was deemed to be pro-life during a face-to-face conversation with a CLC Leader. He has not yet completed CLC's election survey.

During the 2020 CPC Leadership race, Richard endorsed Leslyn Lewis, the pro-life, pro-family leadership candidate who was also supported by CLC. This is notable because many other pro-life MPs, disappointingly, endorsed the pro-abortion Peter MacKay and Erin O’Toole.

In December 2022, Richard joyfully made clear his Christian beliefs with a statement in the House of Commons acknowledging the birth of Jesus at Christmas (see Quotes tab).
