      In their own words

      304 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, I would like to highlight the remarkable work done by Garde-manger pour tous, La Cantine pour tous, Toujours ensemble and the Breakfast Club in the fight against food insecurity in LaSalle—Émard—Verdun.

      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 6 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

      Excerpts repeat support for net zero by 2050 while expanding oil and gas output via carbon capture and clean tech.

      Clean tech is already transforming the oil and gas sector across Canada. It allows producers to reduce their emissions while producing more competitive oil and gas. It makes operations more efficient, transparent and competitive in a world that is increasingly embracing low-carbon solutions.

      Energy

      Expand production and export

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

      Excerpts repeatedly call for Canada to become an energy superpower in both clean and conventional energy, including higher LNG exports.

      Speaker, our government is making Canada an energy superpower in clean and conventional energy. This includes increasing our export of Canadian LNG, with the lowest carbon footprint in the world, to allies who are asking for more of our energy and who share our values, not just our borders. We will advance LNG projects while protecting the environment and respecting indigenous rights.

      Financial regulation

      Lighter capital rules and more competition

      The other end of this axis: Tighter prudential rules

      Excerpts support regulatory sandboxes to reduce red tape and speed new products to market.

      Our government is of the view that regulatory sandboxes would help support economic growth, reduce red tape, and improve Canada's investment environment by permitting new products and new technologies to get to market in a safe and efficient manner. However, the concerns raised by the member opposite are valid.

      Housing

      Public supply and demand controls

      The other end of this axis: Market supply and deregulation

      Excerpts highlight new social housing projects and federal housing agreements.

      Last year, I announced two new social housing projects in our riding. These projects are now making headway and creating housing for real people in our community.

      Labour

      Stronger unions and standards

      The other end of this axis: More flexibility for employers

      Excerpts emphasize generating good jobs for unionized workers.

      All of the major projects we are introducing will generate good jobs for unionized workers in all trades across the country. This will move Canada forward.

      Trade

      Diversify away from one partner

      The other end of this axis: Deeper continental integration

      Excerpts repeatedly advocate reducing dependence on Chinese supply chains and building resilient chains with allies.

      Worldwide, China holds a dominant position in the production and refining of six core critical minerals: lithium, graphite, cobalt, nickel, copper and rare earth elements. These are the building blocks of clean technology, modern manufacturing and advanced defence systems, and right now, too much of that supply chain depends on one single country. In fact, China controls over 75% of global production and refining for graphite, cobalt and rare earth elements.
