Strongly agree

Agree

Yes, scraping copyrighted intellectual property without permission is massive-scale digital theft

While the party agrees with the need for permission and compensation, they typically use more moderate, market-based language such as 'fair remuneration' rather than 'massive-scale digital theft'.

Agree

Yes, but only when generative AI directly replicates a creator's recognizable style

The Liberals lean toward a more comprehensive licensing approach for training data rather than limiting compensation strictly to cases of stylistic replication.

Disagree

No, strict copyright enforcement will just push AI innovation to rival countries with looser regulations

The Liberal party generally argues that robust regulation and intellectual property protections provide a stable environment for innovation rather than hindering it, as evidenced by their introduction of the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (AIDA).

Disagree

No, training AI on public data is like a human learning and falls under fair use

The government is currently reviewing the Copyright Act specifically to address whether the 'fair dealing' exception should apply to AI training, with many within the party advocating for clearer limits on such usage.

Strongly disagree

No

This stance contradicts the party's recent legislative track record of compelling tech giants to pay for content, as seen with Bill C-18 and their public commitments to protecting intellectual property.
