Liberal candidate Nell Thomas has apologized for alleged social media comments that criticized life support for the elderly and women having children.

Thomas addressed "negative messages" circulating on social media about past comments that were "taken out of context."

“However, I recognize that, regardless of context, some of my words may have hurt people and for that I am truly sorry,” she said.

When they show you who they are believe them the first time!

Screengrabs circulating on social media show posts criticizing the elderly and women bearing children. Her X account has since been deleted.

Thomas allegedly commented last May 11 that Canada should "stop keeping ancients alive so long."

On April 12, 2023, she reportedly criticized women for bearing children.

The post reads, “I telepathically advise the fetus to sue the owner of the uterus while exiting it to this world. Of necessity, a mother must be a climate change denier.”

Thomas' posts also reportedly criticized agriculture and meat consumption, and praised China while denigrating North America.

The candidate’s campaign team did not clarify which of her comments were “taken out of context” in comment to the National Post. 

Liberal candidate for Haliburton–Kawartha Lakes Nell Thomas advocated for a carbon tax as recently as January during a climate demonstration in her riding.

In her apology video, the Liberal candidate insisted on her strong morality, but didn't reference the specific posts.

“I am a physician who cares for patients of all ages across every stage of life including end-of-life journeys. I help people find dignity, relieve suffering, and seek peace when existence becomes too heavy to bear,” Thomas said.

“I am also a lifelong environmentalist who cares deeply about the future we are leaving for our children. There is nothing more meaningful to me than caring for moms and their babies,” she claimed.

Thomas appeared less apologetic when talking about the “climate crisis” and the complicity of fossil fuel companies. She expressed sadness that their greed has forced people to question whether or not to have children.

Please help me stop Mark Carney — before it’s too late!

Mark Carney wasn’t elected — he was installed by the global elites. And now that he’s in charge, they think they’ve won. But not if we have anything to say about it. While the bought-and-paid-for media slobber over their new golden boy, we’re hitting the streets, digging into his World Economic Forum playbook, and calling out the radical agenda they’re trying to ram down Canada’s throat. This is the fight of our lives — and we’re not backing down. Help us keep our reporters on the ground, our billboard truck on the move, and our message uncensored. Pitch in now if you want to stop Mark Carney before he does irreversible damage.
