Slower phase-down, production first

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

Excerpts repeat criticism of industrial and consumer carbon taxes as increasing costs and harming affordability, calling to scrap them.

The hidden Liberal industrial carbon taxes on fertilizer and farm equipment, along with the so-called clean fuel standard, keep on increasing the cost of food for Canadians due to the need to transport all our food. This has become so unsustainable that more families are going hungry every day.

Higher spending and more capability

The other end of this axis: Restrain spending and deployments

Excerpts question delays in F-35 spending and military housing shortages while pushing for expansion.

The Liberals said they want the F-35, but it has changed multiple times, and now they are delaying again. If the procurement process is so bad that it is going to take 15 years, when are we expecting to actually spend the money?

Expand production and export

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

Excerpts repeatedly call for pipelines, repealing Bill C-69, and getting Alberta energy to new markets.

When will the current Liberal government repeal the “no more pipelines” bill, Bill C-69, cut the red tape and finally give Canadian energy workers the respect and recognition they deserve?

Provinces lead

The other end of this axis: Ottawa leads

Excerpts state priority to advocate for rights of Alberta and provinces against federal overreach.

It is my priority to advocate for the rights of Alberta and provinces, develop the resources, oppose any regulations and taxes that would harm rural Canadians and support the agriculture sector, which is facing rising costs and federal overreach.

Lower taxes and tighter spending

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

Excerpts repeat calls for lower taxes, fiscal responsibility, and opposition to deficits and carbon taxes.

The removal of the consumer carbon tax was the first step in addressing the economic disaster the Liberal government created over the last lost decade. The industrial carbon tax must also go. Millennials and gen Z cannot afford the costs of home ownership.

Market supply and deregulation

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

Excerpts criticize red tape delaying home construction and call for cutting barriers.

Parks Canada red tape, controlled by the Liberal government, is delaying the construction of new homes. Its process has just exacerbated the housing crisis in the region.

Enforcement and sentencing

The other end of this axis: Prevention and restraint

Excerpts repeatedly oppose overreach on responsible firearms owners and call to focus on criminals instead.

Why will the Liberal government not focus on criminals, make our streets safe and leave our responsible firearms owners alone?

Deeper continental integration

The other end of this axis: Diversify away from one partner

Excerpts urge removing barriers so Canadian energy reaches world markets including Europe and the US.

Speaker, at a time of global conflict and energy insecurity, Canada should be part of the solution by providing ourselves and our allies a secure and reliable source of energy. Instead, the Prime Minister continues to block Canadian energy development while our allies search elsewhere for supply, leaving us vulnerable to Trump's unjustified tariffs.
