Party Policy Comparison


Abortion	Supports abortion-on-demand throughout all 9 months of pregnancy, up to the moment of birth, for any reason or no reason at all.	The Party’s official policy declaration explicitly condemns sex-selective abortions. Party policy declaration supports a Born Alive Infant Protection Act that would require babies who survive abortion be given life-saving medical care. A conflict exists between the Policy Platform and the Party Constitution, with respect to an abortion law. The Constitution (good) describes as a guiding principle of the party: “A belief in the value and dignity of all human life”, whereas the policy declaration (bad) states that “A Conservative Government will not support any legislation to regulate abortion”. The Party policy declaration pledges to implement a "National Adoption Strategy, including an awareness campaign to promote adoption". This is a great policy which, if implemented, would actually reduce the number of abortions in Canada.	Campaign platform pledges that a People's Party government will do two things: #1) "Foster a National Debate on Abortion" and "Challenge other political parties to explain why they believe killing a healthy and viable unborn child is morally acceptable and should remain legal." #2) Introduce a "Protection of Preborn Children Act... where abortion is gradually restricted after the first trimester and late late-term abortions are prohibited except in exceptional circumstances". The party is open to pro-life candidates and has pledged to allow pro-life private members bills to be put forward.	Supports abortion-on-demand throughout all 9 months of pregnancy, up to the moment of birth. Bans pro-life Canadians from running as NDP candidates. Would withhold federal healthcare funding for any province that dares to implement any kind of regulatory barrier to abortion.	Official policy is to “defend innocent human life from conception to natural death” Opposes abortion in every circumstance.	Supports abortion – on – demand throughout all 9 months of pregnancy, up to the moment of birth Bans pro life Canadians from running as Green Party candidates
Funding Overseas Abortions	Liberals have diverted between $650 - $750 million taxpayer dollars per year to fund abortion, abortion advocacy, contraception and sterilization in foreign countries. For years now, the Trudeau Liberals have boasted tha the “right to abortion is… at the core of our foreign policy”.	Official policy is that “abortion should be explicitly excluded from Canada’s maternal & child health program in countries where Canadian aid is delivered”.	Has pledged to "abolish international development aid" by Canada, with the exception of emergency humanitarian action in cases such as conflicts and natural disasters. This would indirectly end taxpayer funding of overseas abortions, which would be a very good thing indeed.	Supports taxpayer funding of international abortions	Would eliminate funding for abortion or its promotion at home and abroad.	Supports taxpayer funding of international abortions
Euthanasia	Supports giving doctors the power to lethally inject their patients. Liberal government legalized this form of homicide in 2016, and have steadily loosened eligibility criteria to the point where today, Canadians are being approved for lethal injection because of poverty, inability to pay rent, having chronic allergies, and other "slippery slope" scenarios that Liberals denied would ever happen. The Liberal government even ordered a parliamentary study directed at legalizing child euthanasia in Canada.	Opposes euthanasia legalization Opposes extension of euthanasia to underage children, the depressed, those who are not mentally competent	No official policy statement on euthanasia.	Supports giving doctors the power to lethally inject their patients.	Opposes euthanasia & assisted suicide in every circumstance.	Supports giving doctors the power to lethally inject their patients.
Transgender Ideology	Supports the anti-scientific theories of gender identity & gender expression. In 2017, the Liberal government enshrined gender identity theory in law, embedding it in the Criminal Code of Canada and the Canadian Human Rights Act. Liberals passed Bill C-4 into law, the so-called "conversion therapy ban", which can land parents in jail up to five years for merely affirming their gender-confused son or daughter as the biological sex in which they were born. In recent years, the Trudeau Liberals have funnelled hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars to push transgender ideology throughout Canada and around the world.	Official party policy opposes the invasion of biological males into female sports and intimate spaces, stating: "The Conservative Party of Canada believes that women are entitled to the safety, dignity, and privacy of single-sex spaces (e.g., prisons, shelters, locker rooms, washrooms) and the benefits of women-only categories (e.g., sports, awards, grants, scholarships)". Official party policy supports banning child sex-change, stating: "A Conservative government will protect children by prohibiting life altering medicinal or surgical interventions on minors under 18 to treat gender confusion or dysphoria".	Would "outlaw the mutilation of minors" by modifying the Criminal Code to "outlaw the use of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and any form of bodily mutilation on minors with the goal of 'transitioning' to another sex". Furthermore, any person "encouraging minors to 'transition' will be held criminally responsible for attempting to cause harm". Would repeal Bill C-4, the so-called "conversion therapy ban" which aims to jail parents, therapists and pasters who help minors who suffer from gender dysphoria accept their bodily reality.	Supports the anti-scientific theories of gender identity & gender expression. NDP MPs introduced two different Gender Identity bills over the years. NDP supported Bill C-4, the so-called "conversion therapy ban", which can land parents in jail up to five years for merely affirming their son or daughter as the biological sex in which they were born.	Supports the biblical worldview that there are only 2 genders: Male and Female. Opposes biological males participating in women's and girls' sporting events or using washrooms, changerooms and showers designated for women and girls.	Supports the anti-scientific theories of gender identity & gender expression.
Marriage	Officially opposes the natural definition of marriage between one man + one woman. It was a Liberal government which legalized homosexual so-called "marriage", and unleashed a flood of LGBTyranny on Canadians of faith, along with relentless indoctrination of their children.	Conservative policy declaration is officially neutral on the definition of marriage	No official party policy statement exists. However, Leader Maxime Bernier is opposed to the true definition of marriage between one man and one woman, and has thrown his support behind homosexual so-called "marriage".	Officially opposes the natural definition of marriage between one man + one woman	Supports the natural definition of marriage as the union of one man + one woman.	Officially opposes the natural definition of marriage
Parental Rights	Liberals want to criminalize parents who use reasonable force in rearing and correcting their children. In a previous session of parliament, Liberal Senators moved bill S-206 to outlaw corporal discipline by parents. Under the proposed law, parents who discipline children with a spank could be be charged with “assault”.	No official policy for or against the previous Liberal Senate anti-spanking Bill, S-206, which sought to criminalize parents who use spanking or physical restraint as a technique to discipline their children.	No official policy for or against the former Liberal anti-spanking Bill, S-206, which sought to criminalize parents who use spanking or physical restraint as a technique to discipline their children.	NDP supports criminalizing parents who use reasonable force in rearing and correcting their children.	Opposes the Liberal plan to criminalize parents with Bill S-206, which would treat spanking or physical restraint of a child as “assault”. Properly and lovingly applied corporal discipline (spanking) is not child abuse and should not be prohibited by any legislation. Parents are the primary caregivers and educators of their own children. The state must not interfere with the rights of parents to decide—for their own children—matters of religious upbringing, medical treatments or moral guidance, particularly on matters of sexuality.	No official policy for or against Liberal anti-spanking Bill, S-206, from a previous parliamentary session, which sought to criminalize parents who use spanking or physical restraint as a technique to discipline their children.
Anti-Christian Persecution	In 2021, following a since-debunked allegation of mass graves at residential schools, the Justin Trudeau Liberals escalated division and fomented hatred against the Catholic Church. Their baseless and irresponsible insinuations started a hate-fueled crime spree against Christian churches, wherein nearly 100 churches since June 2021 have been set on fire or burned to the ground across the country, and another 100 have been vandalized. The media have almost totally ignored the wave of church burnings, but when they did finally ask Trudeau about it, he justified the arson attacks, calling them "understandable". In December 2024, a report was issued from a Liberal/NDP-dominated House of Commons Finance Committee which recommended that in its next budget, the government strip churches, Christian charities, and pro-life organizations of their charitable status. It attacked churches directly by recommonding an amendment to the Income Tax Act "to provide a definition of a charity which would remove the privileged status of ‘advancement of religion’ as a charitable purpose”.	Many Conservative MPs have condemned the hate-fueled crime spree taking place against Christian churches, whereby nearly 100 churches since 2021 have been set on fire or burned to the ground across the country, and another 100 churches have been vandalized in the same period. The Conservative Party also came out, albeit late, against a Dec. 2024 report from the Liberal-dominated House of Commons Finance Committee which recommended that the government strip churches, Christian charities, and pro-life organizations of their charitable status. The report attacked churches directly by recommonding an amendment to the Income Tax Act "to provide a definition of a charity which would remove the privileged status of ‘advancement of religion’ as a charitable purpose”.	PPC Leader Maxime Bernier issued one statement in 2021 condemning the hate-fueled crime spree taking place against Christian churches, whereby nearly 100 churches since 2021 have been set on fire or burned to the ground across the country, and another 100 churches have been vandalized in the same period. Neither Bernier nor the PPC have commented on the Liberal-NDP Finance Committee recommendation to strip all churches of their charitable tax status by removing "the advancement of religion" as a charitable purpose from the Income Tax Act.	The NDP and its leader, Jagmeet Singh, are largely ignoring the wave of arson attacks that have consumed nearly 100 Christian churches (and counting) since 2021. Singh made only only one statement in July 2021 when the arsons happened, stating rather mildly that burning churches is wrong, but then proceeding to criticize church institutions in the same breath, which had the effect of watering down his condemnation of the arson. Neither the NDP nor its leader, Jagmeet Singh, have made any statement to defend churches and charitable organizations from the December 2024 House of Commons' Finance Committee report which recommended to the Liberal government, amongst other things, that it should strip churches of their charitable status by removing "the advancement of religion" as a charitable purpose from the Income Tax Act. In fact, the committee that made these recommendations was dominated by Liberal and NDP MPs.	The CHP condemns the crime wave of church burnings that has taken place across Canada since 2021. The CHP strongly opposes recommendations 429 and 430 by the Liberal-NDP dominated House of Commons Finance Committee, which, in December 2024, counselled the government to remove charitable tax-exempt status from all churches, pro-life organizations, and many Christian charities,	The Green Party and its co-leaders have totally ignored the wave of arson attacks that have consumed nearly 100 Christian churches (and counting) since 2021. They have made no statements of sympathy for the churches that burned down, nor the communities they served. Neither the Green Party nor either of its co-leaders have made any statement to defend churches and charitable organizations from the December 2024 House of Commons' Finance Committee report which recommended to the Liberal government, amongst other things, that it should strip churches of their charitable status by removing "the advancement of religion" as a charitable purpose from the Income Tax Act.
Conscience Rights	Opposes conscience rights for healthcare workers. Asked employers applying to the federal Summer Jobs funding program to sign a pro-abortion loyalty oath.	Supports “conscience rights for doctors, nurses, and others to refuse to participate in, or refer their patients for abortion, assisted suicide, or euthanasia”.	No official policy statement on protecting the conscience rights of healthcare workers so they cannot be coerced to participate in abortion, euthanasia, puberty blockers or mutilating sex-change surgery.	Opposes conscience rights for healthcare workers.	Supports freedom of conscience for medical professionals in regard to abortion, euthanasia, assisted suicide, gender surgery and vaccinations. All Canadians must have freedom of conscience and the right of informed consent in regard to any medical treatments.	No official policy statement on conscience rights
Free Speech	Opposes free speech. The Liberal government has passed and introduced numerous laws which aim to censor speech and punish people with "hate crimes" for peacefully expressing their opinions (C-63) and by censoring the internet and social media platforms (C-11, C-18). Supports compelled speech. Believes in forcing Canadians to utter words in which they do not believe, in violation of their consciences. For example, the Liberals passed Bill C-16, a law which compels Canadians to refer to transsexuals and transvestites with made-up personal pronouns they do not believe in, like “Zhe” and “Zhir”. Bill C-16 also forces Canadians to refer to biological males as if they were women, on pain of potential human rights complaints and/or criminal "hate speech" charges for non-compliance.	Official party policy is to “promote legislation designed to protect freedom of speech & freedom of expression in Canada”. The official Policy Declaration opposes the state forcing citizens to speak words in which they do not believe. In a veiled reference to Liberal Bill C-16 which compels Canadians to utter made-up ‘transgender’ pronouns, the policy declaration reads: “Compelled speech in any form is a violation of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Individual freedoms of thought, belief, opinion, and expression supercede all compelled speech”.	Will narrow the hate speech definition to consist only of speech which "advocates the use of force against identifiable groups or persons based on protected criteria such as religion, race, ethnicity, sex, or sexual orientation". Repeal any existing legislation curtailing free speech. Block the Section 13 ‘censorship provision’ Liberals are planning to bring back. Repeal Bill C-11 which could be used to regulate user content on streaming platforms. The PPC's 2025 election platform includes repealing the totalitarian Bill C-16 which requires Canadians to utter made-up, transgender pronouns like “zhe”, “zhir” and "they".	Opposes free speech, and wants to bring back the repealed Section 13 “censorship provision” of the controversial Canadian Human Rights Act. Believes in compelled speech, i.e. forcing Canadians to utter words in which they do not believe, in violation of their consciences. For example, forcing people to utter the “preferred personal pronouns” of gender-confused individuals upon command, with the threat of a human rights complaint and/or hate speech charge, if you are non-compliant.	Official party policy reads: “Defend against Human Rights Commission attacks on free speech and equality of all Canadians.” Opposes compelled speech.	No official policy statement on the need to protect free speech. However, the Green Party has made it clear that it favours compelled speech. Specifically, forcing Canadians to utter made-up transgender pronouns they do not believe in, like “Zhe” and “Zhir”, on pain of criminal hate speech prosecution and/or "human rights" charges.
Free Votes	Liberal MPs not allowed to vote their conscience. Must vote the party line, in favor of abortion & LGBT ideology.	Allows Conservative MPs & Cabinet Ministers to vote their conscience on abortion, euthanasia & the definition of marriage.	Allows free votes on moral issues & matters of conscience.	NDP MPs not allowed to vote their conscience. Must vote the party line in favor of abortion & LGBT ideology.	On issues of life and family, CHP candidates / MPs would be expected to vote 100% in support of the protection of innocent human life at all stages, support for traditional marriage between one man and one woman, in support of the "supremacy of God and the rule of law", and against the LGBTQ agenda. On most other matters, CHP MPs would be allowed a free vote.	Green Party MPs not allowed to vote their conscience. Must vote the party line in favor of abortion & LGBT ideology.
Legalizing Drugs	At its 2018 policy convention, Liberal party members passed a resolution to decriminalize possession and consumption of ALL illegal drugs, including cocaine, heroin, crack, fentanyl, etc. Liberals passed Bill 45 which legalized marijuana, the dangerous & highly-addictive gateway drug to harder narcotics. It permits 12-yr-olds to possess up to 10 joints. Under the Liberals, all drugs were decriminalized across British Columbia, including crack, cocaine, heroin & fentanyl. Public drug use was also permitted. Overdose deaths in B.C. have risen 338% since the Liberals came to power. Crime has exploded. The Trudeau government opened fifty so-called "safe injection sites" across the country where hard drugs could be consumed, even supplying free drugs to addicts in some locations.	Has no official policy, but in 2017, Conservative MPs voted almost unanimously against legalizing marijuana. Additionally, there is no official policy on the decriminalization of all drugs, nor on so-called "safe injection sites", although the party leader has spoken out against the Liberals' drug decriminalization catastrophe in B.C.	No official policy exists. However, the leader, Maxime Bernier, supports marijuana decriminalization, a dangerous gateway drug to harder drugs like crack, cocaine and crystal meth.	Official NDP policy is to decriminalize all drugs including cocaine, crack, heroin, crystal meth and fentanyl. Party members passed this policy at its 2018 National Convention, in alignment with Jagmeet Singh's personal advocacy to decriminalize. In 2022, an NDP MP even introduced a private members bill (supported by Singh) to decriminalize all drugs.	Opposes the legalization of marijuana and other harmful street drugs. CHP calls for the enforcement of existing drug laws, the elimination of so-called "safe injection sites" and proper treatment for mental illness which can be both a cause and an effect of habitual drug use.	Supports the decriminalization of ALL drugs including heroin, crack, cocaine, crystal meth and fentanyl.

No official policy on the buying and selling of women for sex.	Supports decriminalizing the buying and selling of women for sex.	Opposes the buying and selling of women for sex.	Supports decriminalizing the buying and selling of women for sex.
