Canadian politician.
These issues below are sorted in descending order based on how important the average Canadian voter ranked them on the quiz.
Party’s support baseYes |
Mark Gerretsen’s answer is based on the following data:
Agree
No, focus on green alternatives like wind, solar, and nuclear.
The party strongly prioritizes clean growth and has funded renewables and grid/clean tech, and it supports nuclear/SMRs in principle; while not excluding LNG, the “focus on green alternatives” direction matches Liberal climate-industrial policy.

Agree
No, it locks us into carbon emissions for decades.
Liberals acknowledge long-lived fossil infrastructure risks and have strengthened climate policy (carbon pricing, methane rules, net-zero legislation), so they partially agree LNG can lock in emissions—though they often argue emissions can be mitigated and projects can proceed under caps.

Agree
Yes, create jobs and generate billions in tax revenue.
Economic/jobs arguments align with Liberal messaging on resource projects that meet conditions; the government has highlighted jobs and investment from projects like LNG Canada, but is less likely to endorse aggressive fast-tracking solely on revenue grounds.

Agree
No, it violates Indigenous rights and damages ecosystems.
Liberals emphasize reconciliation, UNDRIP implementation (federal UNDRIP Act, 2021), and impact assessment; they recognize Indigenous rights and ecosystem concerns, but still approve projects with consultation/conditions, so partial agreement rather than full opposition.

Slightly agree
Yes
Liberals have been cautious/ambivalent: they’ve supported some LNG development and export potential (e.g., federal approvals for LNG Canada-related infrastructure and rhetoric about energy security), but have not embraced broad “fast-tracking” given climate targets (carbon pricing, net-zero 2050) and regulatory commitments.

Neutral
Yes, replace dirty dictator oil with ethical Canadian energy.
Liberals sometimes frame Canadian energy as supporting allies (especially after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine), but they generally avoid the Conservative-style “ethical oil” framing and stress decarbonization; mixed fit.

Slightly disagree
No
The party has not taken a blanket anti-LNG stance; it has allowed major LNG projects to proceed (notably LNG Canada in B.C.) while emphasizing emissions constraints, so a flat “No” is somewhat misaligned.
