      In their own words

      Policy positions are scored only from this member's stored House words and, when it is on file, their own public website. Wikipedia and other encyclopedias may supply details such as a birth date, education or work history, and each of those details is labelled with its source, but they are never used to score a position. Members whose only sources are encyclopedias have no scored positions.

      Agriculture

      Defend supply management

      The other end of this axis: Liberalize supply management

      Excerpts criticize use of Quebec as bargaining chip on supply management and call for its protection.

      colleague tell me why it was Quebec that kept getting used as a bargaining chip in the last few treaties, not the rest of Canada? Take, for example, supply management, aluminum today and softwood lumber, which has no protection.

      Climate

      Faster fossil phase-down

      The other end of this axis: Slower phase-down, production first

      Excerpts criticize oil subsidies and call for eliminating them to tackle climate change.

      I would like to ask my Conservative friend whether we can count on all parliamentarians here to tackle climate change once and for all, in particular by eliminating subsidies for the oil industry.

      Defence

      Higher spending and more capability

      The other end of this axis: Restrain spending and deployments

      Excerpts call for study on replacing aging CF-18 fleet and improving operational capacity.

      It reads as follows: That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the Committee undertake a study on the effects of the aging of the CF-18 fleet and the operational capacity of the Canadian Armed Forces; that, as part of this study, the Committee examine the impacts of the repeated delays in procuring new aircraft, the growing workload involved in maintaining the current aircraft and the availability of personnel to carry out these operations, among other issues; that, in so doing, the Committee assess the options for improving the operational process of replacing the CF-18, including by engaging the services of Quebec’s aerospace industry; and that the Committee report its findings and recommendations to the House.

      Energy

      Restrict new oil and gas

      The other end of this axis: Expand production and export

      Excerpts repeatedly criticize federal subsidies to oil and gas and call for their elimination.

      Take, for example, the oil and gas industry. The Liberal government's strategy was to invest $24 billion in oil and gas when it injected just $900 million into the forestry industry. As Theodore Roosevelt said, it is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

      Federalism

      Provinces lead

      The other end of this axis: Ottawa leads

      Excerpts repeatedly state health and other areas are provincial jurisdiction and demand increased transfers instead of federal programs.

      The provinces are not asking to have another health care program rammed down their throats. They are simply asking for an annual increase of 5.2% in health transfers. This is not rocket science.

      Financial regulation

      Tighter prudential rules

      The other end of this axis: Lighter capital rules and more competition

      Excerpts introduce bill to regulate credit card interchange fees.

      The purpose of this bill is to regulate interchange fees, which for far too long have been negotiated behind closed doors at the banks. My hon.

      Health

      Expand public coverage

      The other end of this axis: More private delivery

      Excerpts demand higher federal health transfers to support provincial systems.

      The Quebec National Assembly even unanimously adopted a motion calling on the federal government to do its fair share with regard to health care. This does not make any sense.

      Housing

      Market supply and deregulation

      The other end of this axis: Public supply and demand controls

      Emphasizes need for more housing supply to address shortages and high rents.

      We would need 50,000 new units of social, community and affordable housing to address this crisis. Instead, we are being offered a tax. There is no vision other than creating 6,000 housing units a year for all of Canada. According to estimates, Canada would need 1.

      Immigration

      Lower intake

      The other end of this axis: Higher permanent intake

      Calls for revising immigration targets based on provincial integration capacity.

      On its opposition day on Tuesday, October 31, 2023, the Bloc Québécois invited elected officials from all parties represented in the House to vote in favour of its motion asking the federal government to revise its immigration targets after consultation, of course, with Quebec, the provinces and the territories. Today, the Bloc Québécois reiterates this invitation and asks the House to reaffirm its unanimous vote on November 1, 2023, calling on the government “to review its immigration targets starting in 2024, after consultation with Quebec, the provinces and the territories, based on their integration capacity…all with a view to successful immigration.
