    In their own words

    2,046 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 rise in the House today to provide some final words after almost 11 years in this place. I want to begin by acknowledging my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, as well as the many dedicated public servants and staffers with whom I have had the privilege to work…Government Orders — Business of Supply · 2026-06-02

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

    Energy

    Expand production and export

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

    Excerpt explicitly announces increase in oil and gas output while noting hydrocarbons will continue to play a role.

    During the IEA ministerial on March 24, 2022, Canada announced the incremental increase in its oil and gas production of up to 300,000 barrels per day, including 200,000 barrels per day of oil and up to 100,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day of natural gas, by the end of 2022. Most of this additional production is the result of producers bringing forward planned production from 2023.

    Federalism

    Provinces lead

    The other end of this axis: Ottawa leads

    Excerpts state provinces shape their own policies and keep revenues, with federal backstop only where needed.

    Under the pan-Canadian approach, provinces and territories have the flexibility to shape their own carbon pricing policies, based on their particular circumstances. Some 97% of Canadians live in provinces that already have a price on carbon pollution or are working toward one.

    Foreign affairs

    Assertive alliances and sanctions

    The other end of this axis: Alliance restraint

    Excerpts stress maintaining sanctions on Russia and solidarity with allies despite pressure.

    Let me say this very plainly to this committee today: Canada will never aid Putin in dividing the alliance that supports Ukraine. We and our allies remain united in steadfast support of the people of Ukraine, and we will not weaken our resolve in imposing punishing sanctions on the Russian regime. During consideration of these issues, I spoke multiple times with my counterparts in Ukraine, Germany and the EU.

    Health

    Expand public coverage

    The other end of this axis: More private delivery

    Excerpt links dental care to Tommy Douglas vision and public medicare expansion.

    I am probably one of the few members of this House who actually knew Tommy Douglas personally. It was part of Tommy Douglas' vision for medicare, more generally, to ensure that health issues, dental being a health issue, were addressed. In fact, Saskatchewan for a long time, led the way.
