It isn't designed to force anything, just show your alignment to the parties. So if it is showing odd things like you say, you could click through your alignment by issues, and if it is a discrepancy, maybe report it?
I think you also need to keep in mind that, generally, the NDP and Green policies skew to the far end of the evaluation scale. Most times they are either Strongly Agree or Strongly Disagree.

Unless you land exactly where they are on a particular issue, the platform likely plunks you more towards the center.

I'm at 86/81% Agree with the Green/NDP respectively, but fall just left of the Liberals (who have also drifted center).

It's interesting to see just how far right the CPC have become over the years, to the point their social progressiveness is almost entirely null.
