Agree

Yes, but provide treatment for those testing positive

While the party would support the provision of treatment for those with drug issues, the initial premise of testing might not be fully supported as it implies a conditionality of support that could be seen as contrary to their principles of unconditional social assistance.

Disagree

No, only if they have a criminal history related to drug abuse

Independents 4 Change might see some merit in focusing resources on individuals with a history of drug abuse, but would likely argue against conditional welfare based on criminal history as it could perpetuate cycles of poverty and marginalization.

Disagree

Yes, test anyone receiving money from the government including employees and politicians

While the idea of accountability might find some support, the broad application suggested here, including to employees and politicians, might be seen as impractical or overly punitive, not aligning well with the party's focus on social justice and support for the vulnerable.
