Hurt, I support some private unions but am strongly against public unions

This answer aligns with the Conservative party's general stance on unions. They may be more supportive of private unions, which can negotiate for better working conditions and wages, but are strongly against public unions, which they believe can lead to inefficiencies and increased costs for taxpayers. This was evident in their 2011 election platform, where they pledged to limit the power of public sector unions.

Hurt

Agree

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

The Conservative party may support this answer, as they have expressed concerns about the influence of unions on politics. For example, in 2014, the Conservative government passed the Fair Elections Act, which included provisions to limit the ability of unions and other third parties to make political donations and engage in election advertising. This suggests that they may be open to the idea of limiting the political activities of unions while still acknowledging their potential benefits for workers.

Agree

Help, in theory but have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited

The Conservative party may agree with this answer to some extent, as they may see the potential benefits of unions in theory but believe that corruption and excessive power have led to negative consequences for the economy. For example, they have criticized the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) for its political activities and influence on government policies.

Help
