Agree

Yes

The Liberals generally prioritize keeping CUSMA/NAFTA-style access and have accepted limited dairy concessions in past deals (e.g., CETA, CPTPP, and CUSMA’s dairy TRQs), but they also publicly defend supply management, so support is cautious rather than enthusiastic.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only in exchange for the removal of all U.S. tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum

The Liberals did link trade irritants and sought removal of U.S. steel/aluminum tariffs (Section 232) during the CUSMA period, but they would not make dairy/alcohol concessions only on that single condition; they pursued broader negotiated packages and dispute tools.

Disagree

No

They are unlikely to flatly refuse any concessions if it jeopardizes CUSMA; in the 2018–2019 CUSMA negotiations the Liberal government accepted some dairy access changes to secure the agreement.

Disagree

No, focus on protecting Canadian farmers and sovereignty even if it risks the agreement

While they emphasize supporting farmers (including compensation for dairy under CUSMA/CPTPP/CETA), the Liberals are strongly pro-trade and would not prioritize risking the agreement as a matter of sovereignty.

Strongly disagree

Yes, immediate universal concessions on supply management to avoid a total trade war

The Liberals have consistently pledged to protect supply management and have only made bounded, negotiated concessions with compensation—not immediate universal concessions—across recent trade agreements (CETA/CPTPP/CUSMA).

Strongly disagree

No, set a policy of decoupling from the U.S. market and pursuing new global middle-power alliances

Liberal policy is to deepen and diversify trade but not to decouple from the U.S.; they pursued CUSMA renewal and North American integration while also signing/implementing CETA and CPTPP, indicating diversification without abandoning the U.S. market.
