Canadian Alliance

The defeat and breakup of the hard-right CPC is the necessary first step in the rebirth of a new progressive conservatism.

For traditional and moderate conservatives, the merger of Stephen Harper's Canadian Alliance and Peter MacKay's federal PC party to form the Conservative Party of Canada has been a tragedy.

Conservatives gathered for the federal party's national policy convention in Quebec City today will hear not only from their leader later, but from a man who at one time wanted that job himself.

If the Conservative Party of Canada were a person, it would have reached the age where it could vote and legally drink in half the provinces.

Where does the Conservative Party of Canada go from here? How can Canadians put their trust in a political party that denies "climate change is real?" asks Gerald Kutney.

After a more than four-year hiatus from politics, former cabinet minister Peter MacKay officially launched his bid to capture the leadership of the federal Conservative party before an enthusiastic hometown crowd in Nova Scotia.

"I'm in. Stay tuned."

The race for leadership of the federal Conservatives begins officially on Monday, January 13, 2020.

Signs are pointing to a civil war breaking out within the Conservative party, but breaking down along different lines than past internal battles that divided the party ideologically.

One-time and possible future leadership contender Peter MacKay says the "stinking albatross" of Andrew Scheer's social conservative values cost the Conservatives the election.

The Conservatives easily hung onto a long-time Tory fiefdom on Monday, December 3, 2018, scoring a convincing victory in a federal byelection held in eastern Ontario.
