Very strongly agree

Disagree
No, it violates Indigenous rights and damages ecosystems.
The party supports consultation and economic partnerships with Indigenous communities but generally resists using Indigenous-rights/ecosystem arguments to halt major resource projects; Conservatives have criticized regulatory processes they see as enabling project cancellations, though they acknowledge the duty to consult.

Disagree
No, focus on green alternatives like wind, solar, and nuclear.
While Conservatives support some non-emitting power (often including nuclear/SMRs), they generally oppose prioritizing wind/solar/nuclear as a reason to forgo LNG buildout; they argue Canada can do both and that LNG supports allies and the economy.

Strongly disagree
No, it locks us into carbon emissions for decades.
Conservatives typically reject arguments that new LNG infrastructure should be stopped primarily due to long-term emissions lock-in, emphasizing technology/efficiency and global emissions displacement rather than restricting production.
