“...”Liberalism” in US is more similar to Conservatism in Canada. Conservatism in the US is something we simply don’t have in Canada... our most right wing party would still be considered Liberal by US standards. Our most left wing party (NDP) which has the popular support of about 35% of the country would be considered pure socialists in the US.
I would agree. I’d say 15% make up hard core fiscal and social conservatives. The other 17% of the vote are either one or the other, or simply just centrists.
