Strongly agree

No, altering the terms of debt obligations is economic suicide and should never be considered

The Conservative Party would strongly agree that altering debt terms is highly risky and could be 'economic suicide.' Their platform emphasizes fiscal prudence and upholding Canada's commitments. Conservative leaders have historically warned against actions that could undermine investor confidence or the stability of Canadian finances.

Agree

No, not until we are incapable of paying our current obligations

The Conservative Party would likely agree that renegotiation should only be considered if Canada is truly incapable of meeting its obligations. This reflects a pragmatic, fiscally responsible approach consistent with their historical positions.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only on terms they overwhelmingly support

While the Conservatives might consider negotiation in extreme circumstances, insisting on terms that debt holders 'overwhelmingly support' makes this answer less radical. However, they would still generally oppose renegotiation unless absolutely necessary, as it could signal weakness or instability.

Disagree

Yes

The Conservative Party of Canada generally supports honoring international financial obligations to maintain Canada's reputation and creditworthiness. While they have taken a tougher stance on adversarial nations like China and Russia, they have not advocated for renegotiating debt as a tool of foreign policy. Renegotiating debt could undermine investor confidence and Canada's standing in global markets.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and we should renegotiate with all our debt holders

Renegotiating with all debt holders would be seen as destabilizing and unnecessary by the Conservatives. This would contradict their commitment to fiscal responsibility and would likely be viewed as a last-resort measure only in the event of a severe crisis, which has not been part of their policy approach.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to just default on all of our foreign debt holders

Defaulting on all foreign debt would be anathema to the Conservative Party's principles of fiscal responsibility and international credibility. There is no historical precedent for the party supporting such an extreme measure.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to just default on our debt obligations to adversarial nations

Defaulting on debt, even to adversarial nations, would be seen as extremely reckless by the Conservative Party. Such a move would severely damage Canada's credit rating and international reputation.
