In their own words
1,479 Hansard interventions on file. These are the words said in the House, not a summary. Private conversations are not collected and are not invented.
Madam Speaker, I was wondering what to ask my colleague, and she actually answered my question in her speech. I recalled that before she became such an exceptional member of Parliament, she was an equally exceptional family doctor. She talked about all the programs we have put i…Government Orders — Canadian Fuel Affordability Act · 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. Members whose only sources are encyclopedias have no scored positions.
A stored score on 9 of 14 topics. Each row names the end of that topic’s axis the stored words reached, and the sentence the score rests on.
Defence
Higher spending and more capability
The other end of this axis: Restrain spending and deployments
Repeats support for increased investment and new defence policy over budget cuts.
This policy was implemented following Canada-wide consultations with our constituents from coast to coast. We also promised to provide our men and women in uniform a more dynamic workplace and the equipment that they need. It was with that in mind that we brought in a forward-looking policy that reflects our government's commitment to investing in the Canadian Armed Forces instead of making budget cuts like the Conservative government did for 10 years.Source of that line
Energy
Expand production and export
The other end of this axis: Restrict new oil and gas
Repeats support for Trans Mountain to get Canadian energy resources to markets.
As I said in my speech, our government and the Prime Minister in particular wanted to ensure that the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project goes forward because it is in the national interest. We need this infrastructure to get our energy resources to other markets. That is why we are going to make every effort to support Canada's energy industry, as well as the jobs it represents.Source of that line
Fiscal policy
Higher taxes and public spending
The other end of this axis: Lower taxes and tighter spending
Supports budget with major investments in middle class and long-term growth.
With budget 2016, the Government of Canada is taking an essential step towards growing the middle class and revitalizing the Canadian economy. Budget 2016 puts people first and provides Canadians the help they need now, not 10 years from now.Source of that line
Foreign affairs
Assertive alliances and sanctions
The other end of this axis: Alliance restraint
Supports renewed military mission in Ukraine and work with NATO allies.
This renewed mandate will enable approximately 200 members of the Canadian Armed Forces to successfully pursue their tactical training of Ukrainian security forces. This mission is a key component of the Canadian government's approach to helping Ukraine strengthen its own security, stability and sovereignty.Source of that line
Health
Expand public coverage
The other end of this axis: More private delivery
Advocates national school food framework to ensure healthy food access for children.
The purpose of this bill is outlined clearly in its title: to develop a national framework for the establishment of a school food program to ensure that all children in Canada have access to healthy food. I truly believe this is one of the most important pieces of social legislation the House will debate this session.Source of that line
Housing
Public supply and demand controls
The other end of this axis: Market supply and deregulation
Supports government-led Build Canada Homes and housing accelerator fund for affordable units.
Build Canada Homes will be a developer, a funder, a facilitator and a catalyst for innovation in the housing sector. Canadians need more housing, and Bill C-20, the Build Canada Homes act, will make it possible to build faster and more efficiently at scale.Source of that line
Immigration
Higher permanent intake
The other end of this axis: Lower intake
Repeats support for high numbers of Syrian refugees and other resettlements.
Since November 4, 2015, we have welcomed nearly 40,000 Syrian refugees. I am pleased that all the parties are working together to help the vulnerable victims of Daesh, including the Yazidi population, as evidenced by the unanimous support for the proposal to bring Yazidis to Canada within 120 days, by February 22.Source of that line
Labour
Stronger unions and standards
The other end of this axis: More flexibility for employers
Supports role of unions and repealing laws seen as weakening them.
They all agree that Bill C-377 and Bill C-525 weaken the Canadian labour movement and hinder the establishment of productive labour relations between employers and employees. The previous government hindered these relations, and our government is determined to repeal Bill C-377 and Bill C-525.Source of that line
Public safety
Enforcement and sentencing
The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint
Supports tougher sentences for hate crimes and invocation of Emergencies Act.
Furthermore, tougher sentences for crimes motivated by prejudice or hate were proposed in our Bill C-77, which received Royal Assent this summer.Source of that line
