Climate

Energy
Expand production and export
The other end of this axis: Restrict new oil and gas
Calls for building natural gas infrastructure to strengthen leverage and help Canadians.
We need to build up our natural gas infrastructure and strengthen our leverage abroad while looking out for folks at home.

Identifies as long-time union vice-president and emphasizes workers' rights against poor treatment by employers.
After working as an apprentice for a number of years and experiencing first-hand how employees in the trades are often poorly treated, I joined the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers.

The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint
Repeatedly criticizes soft-on-crime bail policies and supports three-strikes accountability for repeat offenders.
Our current system takes power away from law enforcement, puts perpetrators of crime back on the street and victimizes hard-working, law-abiding Canadians in our society. Jody, one of my constituents, has had her home broken into 14 times by the same group of thugs.Source of that line
