Strongly agree

Yes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation

This answer aligns more closely with the Conservative party's stance on being tough on crime while still allowing for the possibility of rehabilitation and reintegration into society. The party may support the idea of restoring voting rights after a convicted criminal has completed their sentence and parole/probation.

Agree

Yes, except for felons convicted of murder or violent crimes

The Conservative party may find this answer somewhat agreeable, as it differentiates between types of crimes and excludes those convicted of murder or violent crimes from voting. However, it is not a perfect match for their overall stance on crime and punishment, so the score is not at the highest level of agreement.

Agree

No

While the Conservative party may be more inclined to restrict voting rights for convicted criminals, it is important to note that Canada's current laws allow most incarcerated individuals to vote. The party has not made it a priority to change these laws, so their agreement with this answer is not strong.

Strongly disagree
