Slower phase-down, production first

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

Repeats criticism of carbon tax as economic harm, calls for scrapping it.

This carbon tax, much like the original, is not environmental stewardship. It is economic sabotage. London—Fanshawe's entrepreneurs deserve better.

Expand production and export

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

Calls for unlocking energy potential alongside other reforms.

During second reading, our caucus introduced a reasoned amendment that would move Canada toward an affordable life by ending the industrial carbon tax, cutting wasteful spending, bringing down debt and inflation, unlocking our energy potential and clearing away the red tape slowing homebuilding across this country. We believe that Canadians deserve a hopeful future, one where young people can own a home, where seniors can live with dignity and where every person who works hard can get ahead.

Lower taxes and tighter spending

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

Repeats calls for responsible budget, lower deficits and spending restraint.

It is time for a responsible budget to reverse this lost decade of—

Assertive alliances and sanctions

The other end of this axis: Alliance restraint

Supports countering Russia and China actions.

What efforts are Canada and our allies taking to counter the increased presence of both Russia and China on the continent?

Market supply and deregulation

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

Excerpts repeat that the crisis stems from government policy and call for removing barriers so the market can respond.

The housing crisis did not happen because the Liberal government failed to expand its role in housing enough. It happened because housing supply did not keep pace with the surge in demand created by government policy. Over the last decade, the government dramatically increased immigration levels without ensuring that the housing supply could keep up.

Lower intake

The other end of this axis: Higher permanent intake

Repeats that immigration levels must align with housing supply.

Over the last decade, the government dramatically increased immigration levels without ensuring that the housing supply could keep up. The result was predictable: Demand surged, supply lagged and prices were pushed beyond the reach of young Canadians.

Enforcement and sentencing

The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint

Repeats support for bail and sentencing changes to end default release.

For nearly a decade, Canada's bail and sentencing laws have been shaped by Liberal Bill C-75 and Bill C-5. These bills weakened deterrence, reduced meaningful consequences for serious crimes and told judges to prioritize release. They created a system that made it easier for repeat violent offenders to walk free.
