(LifeSiteNews) – Two high-profile Alberta politicians from the New Democratic Party (NDP) will host a night of the “living drag” Halloween party to raise funds for the party under its new pro-LGBT and pro-abortion leader who wants to become the next premier of the province.
Dubbed “Night of the Living Drag 2: Janis and Brooks’ 2nd Annual HallowQueer Fundraiser,” the Halloween party will be hosted by NDP MLAs Janis Irwin and Brooks Arcand-Paul on October 26.
“Start planning your costumes, and get ready to kiki with ghosts, witches, and fabulous local drag artists and special guest performers,” the NDP said.
While the event is for those ages 18 and over, NDP MLAs have promoted drag queen story-time events in the past for kids at various locations in the province.
Also, Irwin attended a highly sexualized all-ages drag show in 2023 at a Unitarian Church in Edmonton.
While the NDP lost the last 2023 provincial election to Danielle Smith’s United Conservative Party, it gained more seats than before.
The NDP has been on a constant attack against Smith and the UCP, notably after Smith announced strong pro-family legislation that strengthens parental rights and protects kids from life-altering so-called “top and bottom” surgeries as well as other extreme forms of transgender ideology.
In 2018, Alberta passed a province-wide “bubble zone” law that came into force under then-Premier Rachel Notley of the NDP. The law made it illegal for pro-lifers and counselors to come within 50 meters of an abortion facility for any activism-related purposes.
Under the harsh law, first-time violators face a $5,000 fine and up to six months in prison.
New Alberta NDP leader Naheed Nenshi is a former pro-LGBT and pro-abortion mayor of Calgary who took over from Notley earlier this year.
Nenshi, who in 2021 called COVID protesters “white supremacists,” said last year that Canadian politicians should use their positions in parliament to combat the “radicalization of white people” in the stereotypically mild-mannered nation.
It was also under Nenshi that the Calgary City Council banned businesses from offering help to those with unwanted same-sex attraction.
