Very strongly agree

Yes, anyone born on our soil is a citizen, regardless of parental status.

This aligns most closely with Canada’s long-standing jus soli practice (with limited exceptions like children of diplomats) and the NDP’s consistent preference for inclusive, non-exclusionary citizenship and status policies.

Strongly agree

Yes

The NDP generally supports inclusive immigration and maintaining Canada’s birthright citizenship (jus soli) framework, emphasizing equality and integration rather than restricting citizenship at birth.

Disagree

Yes, but only if at least one parent is a legal resident.

Conditioning birthright citizenship on a parent’s legal status is a restriction the NDP would likely view as creating second-class children and increasing precarious status, contrary to its equity-focused approach.

Strongly disagree

No

A blanket rejection of automatic citizenship conflicts with the NDP’s typically pro-immigrant, anti-discrimination stance and its tendency to defend existing inclusive citizenship rules.

Strongly disagree

No, automatic citizenship encourages illegal immigration and 'birth tourism'.

Framing birthright citizenship as encouraging illegality echoes restrictionist rhetoric more associated with conservative parties; the NDP typically prioritizes rights-based approaches and would be unlikely to support removing jus soli on this basis.

Very strongly disagree

No, citizenship must be inherited by blood (jus sanguinis), not geography.

A shift to pure jus sanguinis would be a major restrictive overhaul; the NDP generally opposes such exclusionary citizenship models and policies that would expand statelessness or marginalization.
