      In their own words

      503 Hansard interventions on file. These are the words said in the House, not a summary. Private conversations are not collected and are not invented.

      Mr. Speaker, for over a decade, the Liberals blocked, stalled and denied all kinds of projects across Canada that would have made us richer, more sovereign and less dependent on any other country. However, today, we are expected as Canadians to believe that the same people who fi…Government Orders — Building Canada Strong Act · 2026-09-24

      Where they stand

      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.

      A stored score on 7 of 14 topics. Each row names the end of that topic’s axis the stored words reached, and the sentence the score rests on.

      Climate

      Slower phase-down, production first

      The other end of this axis: Faster fossil phase-down

      Excerpt repeats call to cut industrial carbon tax and reverse deficits instead of phase-down policies.

      Conservatives have a plan to fix it, like cutting the industrial carbon tax, reversing Liberal inflationary deficits, fixing the broken immigration system and restoring order and peace to our streets.

      Energy

      Expand production and export

      The other end of this axis: Restrict new oil and gas

      Excerpts repeat calls to repeal anti-energy laws, eliminate production cap, build pipelines and expand energy development.

      Will the Liberals vote for our Conservative motion to eliminate the Liberal job-killing energy cap, or will they continue obstructing getting Canada built?

      Federalism

      Provinces lead

      The other end of this axis: Ottawa leads

      Excerpts repeat criticism of federal immigration policy imposing burdens on provinces without consultation.

      Do you believe it is fair that provinces are made to bear all the health care burdens from federal immigration policy without consultation on means?

      Fiscal policy

      Lower taxes and tighter spending

      The other end of this axis: Higher taxes and public spending

      Excerpts repeat attacks on Liberal deficits and high spending while calling for restraint.

      They promised to cap spending at 2%. They have broken their promise again, spending half a trillion dollars, almost 8% more than Justin Trudeau did. It is the same limitless spending and the same mistakes that got Canada into this mess.

      Housing

      Market supply and deregulation

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

      Excerpts blame high immigration for housing strain and propose tax cuts and reduced charges to increase supply.

      My question for the member is this: Why did the Liberal government not listen to the Conservatives? We suggested eliminating the GST on all home sales up to $1.3 million and cutting development charges to get homes built.

      Immigration

      Lower intake

      The other end of this axis: Higher permanent intake

      Excerpts repeat that Liberals brought people in too fast, breaking housing, health care and jobs, and call for lower intake.

      Immigrants are not to blame for wanting better lives; it is the Liberals' fault for breaking our system and allowing people into Canada too fast for housing, health care and jobs to keep up. Only Conservatives will restore the value of Canadian citizenship and the immigration consensus the Liberals broke by fixing our broken immigration system and setting clear rules.

      Public safety

      Enforcement and sentencing

      The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint

      Excerpts call for tougher bail, sentencing reform and prioritizing victims over prevention focus.

      I am seeking unanimous consent for this committee to proceed to the consideration of Bill C-14, the bail and sentencing reform act.
