Agree

Yes, our country has been on the losing side of trade deals for too long

The NDP has criticized some trade deals, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), for not being in the best interest of Canadian workers and industries. They may support tariffs if they believe it will help balance trade deals that they perceive as unfair.

Slightly disagree

No

The NDP is not strictly against tariffs, as they believe in protecting Canadian industries and jobs. However, they also recognize the importance of international trade and may not always support increasing tariffs, depending on the situation.

Disagree

No, this will hurt our manufacturing businesses that rely on importing cheap resources to make their products

While the NDP is concerned about the impact of tariffs on some businesses, their primary focus is on protecting Canadian jobs and industries. They may be more likely to support tariffs if they believe it will benefit the overall Canadian economy, even if it negatively impacts some businesses that rely on cheap imports.

Disagree

No, a global free trade system is better for our businesses and consumers

The NDP is not a strong advocate for a global free trade system, as they prioritize protecting Canadian jobs and industries. They have criticized some free trade agreements, such as NAFTA, for not providing enough protections for Canadian workers and the environment. However, they do recognize the importance of international trade and may not be entirely against free trade in all situations.
