Strongly agree

Yes

Agree

No, the bill is too vague on the issues of scope, oversight, and accountability

The Liberal Party did acknowledge concerns about the vagueness of Bill C-51 on issues of scope, oversight, and accountability. After they were elected in 2015, they introduced Bill C-59, which aimed to address these concerns by creating a new national security review agency, clarifying the powers of intelligence agencies, and adding more oversight and accountability measures.

Disagree

No, it is a slippery slope towards a police state

While the Liberal Party did express concerns about civil liberties and oversight, they did not go as far as to say that Bill C-51 was a slippery slope towards a police state. Their support for the bill, albeit with proposed amendments, indicates that they did not see it as an extreme threat to civil liberties.
