Promesse de Liberal
"This middle-class tax cut will save two-income families up to $825 a year, by reducing the marginal tax rate on the lowest tax bracket by 1 percentage point. More than 22 million Canadians will benefit directly from this tax cut, and middle- and low-income Canadians will benefit the most." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14

Manufacturing
Promesses de Liberal
"Create a $2 billion Strategic Response Fund to boost our auto sector’s competitiveness, protect manufacturing jobs, support workers to upskill their expertise in the industry, and build a fortified Canadian supply chain – from raw materials to finished vehicles." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
"Build an “All-in-Canada” network for auto manufacturing component parts. With this network, we will work with industry to build more car parts in Canada, limit those parts crossing the border during production, and attract investment into our own industry." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
Sovereignty, Foreign Relations, & the United States
National defence
Promesses de Liberal
"Expand the capabilities of the Navy with new submarines and additional heavy icebreakers to defend the North." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
"We will expand the reach and abilities of the Canadian Coast Guard and integrate them into our NATO defence capabilities. Our Coast Guard carries out important work, but we need to update their mission to face changing realities to protect our sovereignty and counter criminal activity, like the trafficking of illicit drugs. That’s why we will give the Canadian Coast Guard a new mandate—and the right equipment—to conduct maritime surveillance operations to secure our coasts." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
"We will end the chronic lapsing of defence spending, through the creation of a defence capital account that ensures that even when the timing of an investment changes, every dollar assigned to Canada’s defence will remain for that purpose." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
"We will modernize our procurement legislation to ensure our Forces can buy the equipment that they need, when they need it—which is now. We can also swiftly surpass our existing defence spending targets and bolster our capabilities by investing in dual purpose infrastructure—whether housing, cybersecurity, or satellite technology—that delivers immediate benefits for both our Forces and the public." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14
"Creating a first-in-class drone capability that will build and deploy aquatic and airborne uncrewed vehicles to defend our arctic, our undersea infrastructure, our borders, and our allies. This new capability will be matched with an industrial strategy that builds and perfects these technologies so that Canadian companies benefit from Canadian procurements." — liberal.ca, retrieved 2025-04-14

Biographie
Lisa Hepfner has been serving the community of Hamilton since her arrival in the city in 1999 to work as a news reporter. Her mission has always been to give people a voice and to give their stories a platform, and that work became even more effective after she was elected to the House of Commons in 2021.
Lisa was born in Nova Scotia, raised both in Dartmouth and Calgary, Alberta, and spent some early adult years in France and Honduras, where she learned to speak French and Spanish. She has undergraduate degrees in Political Science with a French minor (University of Calgary) and Journalism (then-Ryerson University) and a master’s degree in communications management (McMaster University).
After more than 20 years of daily news reporting, first at the Hamilton Spectator and then as a broadcast journalist at CHCH TV, Lisa feels deeply connected to the people of Hamilton. In 2011, she was named the YWCA Woman of Distinction for politics and public affairs, due to her efforts to understand and improve the lives of Hamilton's women, girls and gender-diverse people.
As a Parliamentarian, Lisa has ensured that Hamilton Mountain gets the attention and investment it deserves on the national stage. She has been a strong voice for affordable healthcare and childcare, empowering women, and strengthening journalism in our democracy. She is also the co-founder of the Steel Caucus for the 44th Parliament, ensuring this vital Hamilton industry continues to thrive.
Lisa is a mother, a gardener, a passionate reader of fiction, and a lover of quintessentially Canadian sports like skiing, skating and paddling.
