719 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, Margaret Haddon from Bradford wrote me to say she raised her children believing that if they worked hard, stayed focused and pursued an education, they would be able to build stable and independent lives, but today she is watching that promise slip further out of rea…Oral Questions — The Economy · 2026-09-22
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.

Climate
Slower phase-down, production first
The other end of this axis: Faster fossil phase-down
Excerpts repeat opposition to the carbon tax and criticize the just transition from oil and gas without support for workers.

Fiscal policy
Lower taxes and tighter spending
The other end of this axis: Higher taxes and public spending
Excerpts repeat criticism of out-of-control spending, deficits and the carbon tax.
The hard-working people of Georgina, East Gwillimbury, Bradford, Georgina Island and all across York-Simcoe are clearly worried about the Liberal government's out-of-control spending and rising debt and what it will mean for their children's and grandchildren's future. They are concerned that the carbon tax will make things more unaffordable for everyday life, and they are tired of ongoing government corruption and scandals.Source of that line
Housing
Market supply and deregulation
The other end of this axis: Public supply and demand controls
Excerpts highlight housing affordability problems and blame Liberal policies for making ownership harder.
Why is the Liberal government making it even harder for Canadians to own a home?Source of that line
Public safety
Enforcement and sentencing
The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint
Excerpts criticize bail for repeat offenders and call for stronger action against crime.
A recent newspaper article reported that a car was stolen and in less than six hours, the gentleman was stealing another car. He was charged with impaired driving and he was out on bail again. These violent crimes have to stop. God help the people of Toronto with their property tax increase, but the NDP mayor of Toronto is cutting the Toronto Police Service budget.Source of that line
