The Right Path: How Conservatives Can Unite, Inspire, and Take Canada Forward
“I’ve been around conservative politics my whole life. In the 1980s, I helped shape two back-to-back majority governments with a progressive, diverse conservative coalition representing all regions of the country. We made tough, evidence-based decisions on public policy, covering the economy, the environment, human rights, and the implementation of the GST. We made Canada competitive and created the opportunity to balance the budget. Today, our country needs a strong conservative leader who can rebuild such a coalition—and take advantage of Tasha Kheiriddin’s sharp analysis of emerging electoral trends to win key ridings and secure victory in the next general election.”
Rescuing Canada’s Right: Blueprint for a Conservative Revolution
A timely and provocative call to action for civically minded Canadians who aspire to a more competitive political system and better government. Canadians worldwide are asking: what’s wrong with the Conservative Party? The Liberal Party of Canada has held power for 70 of the past 100 years—an achievement unmatched by any other party in the Western Hemisphere. This dominance has caused frustration across the political spectrum, especially on the right. Over the past two years, the long-awaited merger of the Canadian Alliance and progressive conservatives has not delivered the results many hoped for. Despite explosive revelations from the Sponsorship Scandal and efforts to improve the party’s image, Stephen Harper’s Conservatives continue to trail in the polls.
