  • Orchard to Run for Tory Leadership
    Orchard to run for Tory leadership By ALLISON DUNFIELD Globe and Mail Update Friday, January 17 – Online Edition, Posted at 4:52 PM EST Saskatchewan farmer and long-time Tory David Orchard Friday announced his intention to join the upcoming Progressive Conservative leadership race. Mr. Orchard, who had been expected to enter the race for some time, will officially announce his candidacy on Tuesday at a press conferences in Ottawa and Montreal. His bid raises the number of candidates to three. Of those, Tory MP Peter MacKay is the most well-known and is considered the front-runner. Mr. MacKay announced Thursday that he would run. Calgary lawyer Jim Prentice also launched his bid Thursday. A statement from Mr. Orchard's office says Mr. Orchard's campaign will focus on his commitment to the "historic principles of the Progressive Conservative Party and about how the renewal of national government based on those principles is essential to the preservation of our country and the values upon which it is based." Mr. Orchard, a free-trade opponent, came second to outgoing Progressive Conservative Leader Joe Clark at the 1998 leadership convention. At his early morning news conference in Nova Scotia Thursday, Mr. MacKay promised tax cuts and a political comeback to Tory party faithful. Both he and Mr. Prentice spoke of the need to bring more co-operation to Canada's right-wing parties, but Mr. Prentice said his intention is to first build the Tories and then do what he can to push forward notions of co-operation. The Progressive Conservatives had hoped to snag several high-profile candidates early on, including New Brunswick Premier Bernard Lord and Ontario businessman John Tory.

Radical social movements and countercultures challenged the conservatism of the preceding decade, rejected traditional forms of politics, and demanded an alternative based on the principles of social justice, individual freedom and an end to oppression on all fronts. Yet in Canada a unique political movement emerged which embraced these principles but proposed that New Left social movements – the student and anti-war movements, the women’s liberation movement and Canadian nationalists – could bring about radical political change not only through street protests and sit-ins, but also through participation in electoral politics.
