 | | The Conservative Party of Canada-Its Many Past Lives******* While historians tend to fix the birth year of the Tory Party in Canada as 1854 (Page 455, Dawson, the Government of Canada,4th edition, 1963, University of Toronto Press), the official name of that party was "the Liberal-Conservative Party of Canada". |
 | | In terms of electoral potential and membership, the Conservative party that will soon be, will more resemble the great Conservative Party that was than the Conservative Party that now is. I hope people nationwide will sign up up as PC Party members to see that this merger deal is ratified. |
 | | On December 11th, 1942, the convention that chose John Bracken as Tory leader also ratified the renaming of the Tory party as "the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada" which it has remained for the past 61 years. |
