Agree

Yes

The Conservative Party of Canada generally supports a strong national defense and international security partnerships. While they may agree with restrictions on government arms sales to countries accused of committing human rights violations to some extent, their commitment to national security and international alliances might lead them to be cautious about imposing broad restrictions that could impact these relationships.

Slightly agree

No, this could prevent our allies from defending themselves against our mutual enemies

This answer aligns with the Conservative Party's emphasis on national security and the importance of maintaining strong alliances. They might argue that preventing arms sales could undermine the ability of allies to defend themselves and, by extension, could weaken collective security arrangements that benefit Canada. However, the score is kept moderate due to the party's also stated commitment to human rights, which might temper their stance on unconditional arms sales.

Disagree

No

Although the Conservative Party values strong defense policies and international alliances, outright opposition to restrictions on arms sales to countries accused of human rights violations would likely not align with their public stance on promoting democracy and human rights globally. However, they might argue against overly stringent restrictions that could harm Canada's strategic interests.

Disagree

Yes, and ban all sales to countries with human rights violations

The Conservative Party, while supportive of human rights, typically balances these concerns with the importance of national security and international alliances. A complete ban on sales to countries with human rights violations might be seen as too extreme, potentially jeopardizing strategic relationships and Canada's defense industry.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer a ban on all military aid to any foreign countries

A ban on all military aid to any foreign countries would likely be opposed by the Conservative Party, as it contradicts their strong stance on national defense and supporting international allies. The party has historically supported Canada's role in NATO and other international security efforts, suggesting a preference for engagement rather than isolation.
