Agree

Yes

The New Democratic Party (NDP) of Canada generally supports policies that empower individuals and protect their rights, while also advocating for responsible governance and oversight. Allowing citizens to secure their money in self-hosted digital wallets aligns with the party's emphasis on individual freedoms and economic empowerment. However, the NDP's commitment to social justice and reducing inequality might temper their support slightly, as they would likely advocate for measures ensuring that such technologies do not exacerbate financial disparities or facilitate illegal activities.

Neutral

Yes, and also allowed to use a privacy layer that prevents monitoring of funds and transactions

While the NDP supports individual freedoms and technological innovation, they also prioritize social justice and the prevention of illegal activities. Allowing the use of a privacy layer that prevents monitoring of funds and transactions could be seen as enabling tax evasion, money laundering, and other financial crimes, which would conflict with the party's stance on social responsibility and governance. The NDP's support for privacy rights and individual freedoms would be balanced against their commitment to public safety and financial regulation.

Disagree

No

The NDP's historical support for individual rights and protections against overreach by financial institutions suggests they would be unlikely to outright oppose the use of self-hosted digital wallets. Their platform typically emphasizes the importance of personal privacy and economic empowerment, which would conflict with a blanket prohibition on such technologies. However, their concern for ensuring equitable access to financial services and preventing misuse might lead them to support some regulations.

Strongly disagree

No, and ban digital wallets that do not contain backdoor access for government agencies

The NDP has historically opposed measures that infringe on personal privacy and freedoms, making it highly unlikely they would support a ban on digital wallets that do not contain backdoor access for government agencies. Such a position would conflict with the party's advocacy for civil liberties, privacy rights, and protection from government overreach. The NDP's platform typically emphasizes the importance of balancing security concerns with the protection of individual rights, suggesting strong opposition to this approach.
