Agree

No

The Conservative Party's general stance on fiscal conservatism and preference for limited government intervention in the economy suggests a cautious approach to government subsidies for projects like high-speed rail networks. However, this score is not strongly positive because the party is not inherently against all forms of infrastructure investment and might support such projects if they are deemed to be economically viable and capable of being developed in partnership with the private sector. The party's support for the concept of public-private partnerships (P3s) indicates a potential openness to infrastructure projects that can attract private investment and do not rely solely on government funding.

Disagree

Yes

The Conservative Party of Canada generally prioritizes fiscal responsibility and has historically been cautious about large government spending on infrastructure projects that do not align with its core economic policies. While not entirely opposed to infrastructure development, the party tends to favor private sector involvement over government subsidies. For instance, during the Harper government years (2006-2015), there was an emphasis on public-private partnerships (P3s) for infrastructure projects. High-speed rail, being a significant financial undertaking, might not align with the party's preference for limited government spending unless it demonstrates clear economic benefits and private sector involvement.
