Cheryl Gallant

Conservative on Building Canada Strong Act 2026-10-06

17 words · 1 sentences · 1 clauses

Replying to Guillaume Deschênes-Thériault (Liberal)

“Mr. Speaker, my colleague mentioned a few things in her speech that I think are inaccurate. She said that no projects have seen shovels in the ground, but that is completely false. I am thinking of the Contrecoeur port project, which began last spring, and the Mackenzie Valley Highway, which began construction this summer. I am also thinking of the electrical transmission project on the north shore, which got under way this year. Those are a few examples. Building projects of national interest means shovels in the ground. Thanks to Bill C‑39, we will continue to build even more. I encourage my colleague to review the list of projects of national interest that are being studied and to follow their progress very closely, because there is a lot of potential there for strengthening our economy.”

What the tags mean

Signal · 100

Nothing lost points on Signal.

Signal checks whether every part makes a point, gives a reason, or asks for action. A low score means the speaker filled time with fluff, pleasantries, or attacks.

Relevance · 100

Nothing lost points on Relevance.

Relevance checks whether the speaker stays on topic and answers the question asked. A low score means the speaker dodged the issue. Measured against the comment put to the member, and the bill under debate.

Respect · 100

Nothing lost points on Respect.

Respect checks whether the speaker argued with people’s positions and records rather than attacking the people: insults, mockery, or bad motives assigned to them. Criticism of what someone did, however strong, is not marked.

Clarity · 100

Nothing lost points on Clarity.

Clarity checks for plain speaking, clear ownership of actions, and honest limits on certainty. A low score means vague promises or evasive language.

Claims · 1

This list shows the factual statements you can check for yourself: the words as said, and the claim restated to stand on its own.
