In their own words
1,629 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 thank my colleague from Vancouver Granville for the overview that he gave of Bill C-39, which is extremely important legislation for our country and Canadians during this time.

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 10 of 14 topics. Each row names the end of that topic’s axis the stored words reached, and the sentence the score rests on.
Agriculture
Defend supply management
The other end of this axis: Liberalize supply management
Excerpts repeat support for supply managed sectors receiving full compensation.
The government will ensure that those in Canada’s supply managed sectors receive full and fair compensation for recent trade agreements. Farmers keep our families fed, and we will continue to help them succeed and grow.Source of that line
Climate
Faster fossil phase-down
The other end of this axis: Slower phase-down, production first
Excerpts repeat support for reducing greenhouse gas emissions through carbon pricing and a national framework.
We are working to develop a plan to grow our economy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and build resilience to the impact of climate change. Our government is approaching this challenge in a prudent and flexible manner.Source of that line
Defence
Higher spending and more capability
The other end of this axis: Restrain spending and deployments
Excerpt supports meeting and exceeding NATO spending targets ahead of schedule.
This is why budget 2025 also included generational investments to secure our sovereignty, including meeting NATO's 2% of GDP core defence spending target this year, five years ahead of schedule, and putting Canada on a path to meeting NATO's 5% defence investment pledge by 2035.Source of that line
Energy
Expand production and export
The other end of this axis: Restrict new oil and gas
Excerpts repeat approval of pipelines and investments to support the energy sector and create jobs.
We have approved three pipelines that will create over 25,000 jobs for Albertans, and those 25,000 jobs will also create spinoff jobs. We are proud of that development and that decision.Source of that line
Fiscal policy
Higher taxes and public spending
The other end of this axis: Lower taxes and tighter spending
Excerpts describe large investments and transfers to provinces.
The 2025–26 main estimates increase the CST by just over $507 million, reflecting the 3% annual growth rate provided for in the legislation. The fourth federal transfer is made through the territorial formula financing, which enables territorial governments to provide their residents with programs and services comparable to those provided in the rest of Canada, at comparable levels of taxation, taking into account the higher costs of services and the unique circumstances of the north.Source of that line

Assertive alliances and sanctions
The other end of this axis: Alliance restraint
Excerpt supports contributions to Ukraine via G7 initiative.
In addition to the important investments we are making at home, we are committed to remaining united with our allies and partners to support Ukraine as it fights for its freedom and security. The $200-million payment to the World Bank Group's financial intermediary fund in support of Ukraine is part of Canada's contribution through the G7 leaders' Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration Loan initiative, which will be used to support projects, programs and activities that meet Ukraine's budget, recovery and reconstruction needs.Source of that line

Immigration
Higher permanent intake
The other end of this axis: Lower intake
Excerpt supports attracting more immigrants to address demographics.
That is why I feel we have to keep moving in that direction, maintain our traditions, and work even harder to attract more immigrants. This is why I fully support this motion.Source of that line
Trade
Deeper continental integration
The other end of this axis: Diversify away from one partner
Excerpt supports USMCA and free trade agreements.
Over the past year and a half, Canada has strengthened its relationship with its top five trading partners: the United States, Mexico, China, Japan, and the European Union. The work continues.Source of that line
