		The Conservatives as a whole opposed the Family Allowances Act of 1944, which gave a small monthly sum to all families with children, to help cover the costs of child-rearing, but Diefenbaker was for the allowances and persuaded his colleagues that it would be politically disastrous to vote against the act.
		The Progressive Conservative Party's difficulties were also great, but they were offset by the country's desire for change, which gave Diefenbaker his main chance in the 1957 general election.
		The extent of the Conservatives' decline was seen in the spring election of 1962, which Diefenbaker campaigned on the misdeeds of the Liberals instead of on his own record.

Macdonald and Sir George-Etienne Cartier by virtue of the fact that the merged entity assumed all assets and liabilities of the Progressive Conservative Party.
		While the Progressive Conservatives have officially withdrawn from politics, they retain a nominal organization and run paper candidates to maintain the party's treasury.

		The Tories and their association were forced to fully re-evaluate the purpose and philosophy of their party, and to initiate a full reconstruction of the party’s organization.
		If the 1956 election transformed Nova Scotia into a genuine two-party province, then it might also be said that the NDP breakthrough in 1998 may have been the bifurcation point that established Nova Scotia as a three-party province.
