I'd be interested in an explanation of the Canadian conservative movement. Just how conservative are we talking about? Any movement in that direction would be a tonic for Canada, for sure. Is there one of our Canadian FReepers who would be kind enough to explain to us the tenets and positions of the Canadian conservative movement, please?

I'm not Canadian, but as I understand it, Canada has two conservative parties, which splits the conservative vote and allows the Liberals to win election after election. The conservative parties constantly feud with each other in different parts of the country. There have been many attempts to get them to reconcile and put up a united front against the Liberals, but these always come up short due to various personalities and long-standing grudges and vendettas.

I'm sure there are Canadian freepers out there who can correct me or expand this explanation.
