In their own words
1,527 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, Bill C‑39 represents another another major step backward on environmental issues as well as on workers' rights. The government would have people believe that the bill will not result in environmental rollbacks. It says environmental assessments will not be weakened.…Government Orders — Building Canada Strong Act · 2026-09-24
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
Faster fossil phase-down
The other end of this axis: Slower phase-down, production first
Excerpts repeat calls to cut emissions sharply and oppose oil and gas expansion.
Again, if we are serious about fighting climate change, we need to lower emissions, not increase them. Yes, emissions have gone up.Source of that line
Energy
Restrict new oil and gas
The other end of this axis: Expand production and export
Excerpts repeat opposition to new pipelines and oil sands expansion.
Now is not the time to build new pipelines, however. This is not simply our opinion.Source of that line
Federalism
Provinces lead
The other end of this axis: Ottawa leads
Excerpts stress Quebec sovereignty and BAPE primacy over federal assessments.
The BAPE's primacy and Quebec's sovereignty over its territory are non-negotiable. Will the government commit to respecting them?Source of that line
Fiscal policy
Lower taxes and tighter spending
The other end of this axis: Higher taxes and public spending
Excerpts criticize increasing spending without a budget as fiscally irresponsible.
For now, we feel that it is being fiscally irresponsible.Source of that line
Housing
Public supply and demand controls
The other end of this axis: Market supply and deregulation
Excerpts support non-market housing units.
In your remarks, you talked about building of two million energy-efficient non-market housing units to create affordable housing, as well as how important it is to renovate homes and buildings.Source of that line
Labour
Stronger unions and standards
The other end of this axis: More flexibility for employers
Excerpt opposes restrictions on the right to strike.
Whether the government likes it or not, it is very clear to us that these debates must take place among elected officials, particularly when it comes to the use of arbitrators, restricting the right to strike and restricting workers' rights. It is no wonder that the FTQ, the Fédération des travailleurs et travailleuses du Québec, is speaking out against this bill.Source of that line
