		However, Pitt rejected the Tory label, preferring to refer to himself as an "independent Whig." The group surrounding Pitt the Younger came to be the dominant force in British politics from 1783 until 1830 and after Pitt's death the term "Tory" was increasingly used by its members instead of 'Pittite' or 'Friends of Mr Pitt'.
		Over time, however, the term Blue Tory has come to embody the more ideologically neo-liberal (in the manner of Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan) elements in the party, while a Red Tory is a member of the more moderate wing of the party (in the manner of John Farthing and George Grant).

		To understand why I, and many others who are called Red Tories, refuse to support the merger, one needs to understand a Red Tory's values.
		It is based less on the 1960s academic view of what a Red Tory is, and more on the contemporary policies advocated by those who would self-identify with and/or have been labelled as Red Tories.
		Red Toryism is more than a party; it is a Canadian idea, and good ideas never die.

	Politblogo: Red Toryism
		The Red Tory thinks that the lord of the manor has the obligation to make sure that his subjects/servants live fulfilling lives and that their children have a future, and that this obligation should be enshrined in custom and law.
		BUT the Red Tory also believes that the lord of the manor ought to be the lord of the manor; he/she is less interested in breaking down class barriers.
		The Red Tory is likely to be a nationalist aligned with the present State and an internationalist aligned with all the institutions as they presently stand, from the UN to the IMF.

	The world's top red tory websites
		Throughout the federal PC Party's decline, Red Tories were generally seen as the most vocal opponents of the Unite the Right initiative which proposed unification or cooperation with the competing Reform Party of Canada (later the Canadian Alliance), viewing it as too radically conservative.
		In many ways, Red Tories were closer to the NDP than to the Liberals and some Red Tories have joined the NDP as the Tories have moved to the right.
		With the conservative movements drift to the political right, the term Red Tory is often used today not to refer to those in the traditional Red Tory tradition of George Grant or Robert Stanfield but simply to moderates in the conservative movement, particularly those who reject or do not sufficiently embrace social conservatism.

		I would say that John Hamm's greatest accomplishments and ideas were "blue tory" in nature -- The "Blue" factions of the Canadian conservative movements are populated by conservatives who favour devolution of more federal power to the provincial governments, a reduced role for government in the economy, reduction of taxation.

		Macquarrie counts himself among the dying breed of `Red Tories.' As an erstwhile political scientist, he is no doubt aware of the academic debate that gave birth to the term, but he makes no mention of Louis Hartz or Gad Horowitz.
		Nor does he reflect deeply on the forces that gave rise to red toryism either in the region he represented or in his country as a whole.
		Given what seem to be largely conventional views for Red Tories these days, it is a pity that Macquarrie refused to take a less conventional approach to his memoirs.

		But if taxes are to be cut as deeply as the Tories imagine -- God knows what sort of hole the party's promise to abolish the capital gains tax on personal income would blow in the public accounts -- it is simply not possible to reconcile these ambitions.
		But then, Toryism has never been about intellectual consistency, most especially among that strange mutation, now the dominant strain in the party, known as Red Tories.
		The Red Tory, as the name implies, does not go in much for logical coherence or philosophical frameworks; indeed he prides himself on it.

	In Medias Res: On Blackberries, Canada, and Conservatism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		I'm looking for Red Tories in the original sense--the noble, old-fashioned "conservative" mix of religion, egalitarianism, self-government and national populism, which goes back to Benjamin Disraeli and John MacDonald, and found strong expression in Canada through the Progressive Conservative Party of John Diefenbaker and Robert Stanfield.
		Toryism and populism are both conservative in a way that differs a lot from contemporary neoliberal conservatism-- but that still doesn't make Toryism and populism the same, does it?
		Maybe the ultimate fate of Red Toryism was simply that we got so good at using our resources that the notion of limits faded, and with it a sense of place.

		Dalton Camp, known as a red Tory for his rejection of neo-conservatism and his more "liberal" approach, died Monday at age 81 due to a stoke he suffered in February.
		After losing in his attempts to be elected to the House of Commons, Camp retired from the party but kept an eye on the situation in Canada by becoming a political commentator on CBC radio's Morningside, and a columnist, twice a week, in the Toronto Star.
		Although he was and is seen differently by Tories, who either love him or hate him, in a Trudeau-esque situation, all respect him.

	Red Tory tradition ends with Joe Clark (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Clark's speech was a familiar defence of the high points of the Mulroney years -- the warm relations with Washington, the daring (and divisive) constitutional initiatives, the acid rain treaty -- and also an indirect defence of his own highly partisan, almost bitter, attacks on Jean ChrÃ©tien in recent years.
		There was no secret to his appeal: He was mainstream, centrist, indistinguishable from John Manley on the economy, maybe even left of Paul Martin on social policy, a member of a much-diminished tribe known as the Red Tories.
		Barring some surprise, the true Red Tory tradition ends this weekend along with Joe Clark's career.

		Canadaâs distinct âRed Toryâ conservatives had always been wary of American empire, firmly federalist, politically centrist, and as suspicious of antiestablishment socialists on the left as they were of the individualists and free-market advocates on the right, in the Liberal party.
		To be a Tory in Canada was to cleave to the principles of universality and the common good, and to welcome the progressive role of the state in nation-building.
