Agree

Yes, break the Big Three monopoly and lower our bills

Breaking the dominance of the Big Three and lowering prices aligns with Liberal affordability messaging and recent policy directions to the CRTC to increase competition (e.g., 2023 direction emphasizing competition/affordability and wholesale access measures).

Agree

Yes

Liberals generally favour more competition and investment but have not pushed full liberalization of foreign ownership; they’ve tended to prefer targeted pro-competition measures (e.g., 2023 MVNO/wholesale access policy direction and affordability agenda) rather than a blanket open-door approach.

Agree

Yes, more competition is the only way to fix our broken market

Liberals often frame competition as part of the solution (alongside regulation and consumer protections), but they have not consistently endorsed 'only way' or sweeping foreign entry; their approach is more incremental and regulatory.

Slightly agree

No, they will just cherry-pick cities and ignore rural Canada

Concern about rural service is compatible with Liberal emphasis on rural broadband buildout (e.g., Universal Broadband Fund launched under Trudeau), but they usually address it via coverage obligations/subsidies rather than using it to categorically oppose new entrants.

Slightly disagree

No, we must protect Canadian jobs and national sovereignty

Liberals do cite sovereignty/security in telecom (e.g., 2022 decision to ban Huawei 5G equipment), but they don’t typically argue broadly against competition/entry primarily on jobs/sovereignty grounds.

Disagree

No

The party has not taken a hard 'no' stance; Liberal governments have pursued affordability/competition policies through the CRTC and spectrum rules, even if they keep significant foreign-ownership limits in place.

Strongly disagree

No, nationalize the infrastructure instead of selling out

Nationalizing telecom infrastructure is far outside Liberal policy; Liberal governments have relied on private carriers plus regulation and public funding programs (e.g., UBF) rather than public ownership.
