		However, due to the existence of "catch-all parties" similar to those present in Britain, Canada and the United States, the left-right cleavage is less salient in Quebec than in continental Europe, and the political parties of Quebec are far less polarised than, for example, in France or Germany.
		This party, hoping that Quebec remains a canadian province, defends an ideology close to the liberal-conservative tendency, placing this party, among the three main political parties, on the right side of the political spectrum.
		Generally speaking, this party is situated sligntly on the right of the Parti libéral du Québec on the political spectrum, even if it defends some policies that are closer to the center of the political spectrum.

		As an advocate for the interests of the Canadien of Lower Canada, Louis Joseph Papineau was able to secure the presence of the Canadien, both culturally and politically, in the colony.

		The party did not have the strength to confront, as it had in 1810, the government, the merchant faction, the clergy, and the nobility.
		For from 1815 on the rapid increase of the English speaking population in the towns through immigration threatened to deprive the Parti Canadien of its urban roots and to make it appear to be a party with an exclusively rural base and ideology.
		But as soon as London supported the Patriote party on the question of supply and proposed a solution that would safeguard the aspirations of all sides, Papineau declared that control of finance was no longer a priority for his party and did not respond to the English government’s offer.

		In the 1830s two men gained prominence: Louis-Joseph Papineau, leader of the Parti Canadien, which later became the Parti Patriote, in Lower Canada, and William Lyon Mackenzie, leader of the Reformers in Upper Canada.
		In the case of Lower Canada: “English and Canadien parties had taken shape in the Assembly early in the century, but Lower Canadian society was not sharply polarized by language until 1809-10.
		Mistakenly equating Canadien aspirations with those of Napoleon, and perceiving them as a threat to English authority, he imprisoned leaders of the Parti Canadien without trial, twice dissolved the Assembly.”(1) Indeed, Governor Craig’s contempt for the Parti Canadien would prompt the emergence of the Parti Patriote and the ensuing revolts.

	"Communists love Canada!": The Communist Party of Canada, the "people" and the Popular Front, ...
		By the late 1920s, western parties did not dispute their collective obligation to defend the USSR or its right to strengthen its national security through diplomatic manoeuvres.
		Yes, Party leaders acknowledged, bourgeois-democracy had paved the way for Fascism and had not "become all right overnight." Yet, while reassuring members that they would "never be satisfied until we have Soviet-democracy, the dictatorship of the proletariat," they insisted that the rise of Fascism had changed the political situation and necessitated a change in tactics.
		A year later, Montreal party leader Fred Rose was still justifying this position: when socialism returned to the immediate agenda, he pointed out, it would be "a million times more difficult" to achieve under a Fascist regime; meanwhile, all "sectarian" priorities had to be set aside to ensure that Fascism was repelled (Rose 4-5).
