In the “hey, we’re on the same page” department we find this editorial in the Windsor Star by David Warren. Compare it to my latest column (in the columnist section), called The liberals’ Culture of Death, and the one before that called Liberals now fully represented in Canada :
A party split was avoided, on the vexed procedural matter of weighting constituency representation. It makes no sense whatever to split the Conservative party again, no one should go there. The way forward is for genuinely “conservative” people to capture the party, just as the conservatives captured the Republican party “by the grassroots” in the United States during the 1970s and ‘80s.

With 75% of the Conservative Party membership choosing to enshrine traditional marriage, have Tories found the courage to become the real alternative voters are desperately seeking?
Only at first glance. A resolution was passed stating a Conservative government would not support any abortion legislation.
By seeking the politically correct solution when the majority of MPs are pro-life, party faithful have predetermined another election cycle of “hidden agenda” rhetoric by the Left.
Head-in-the-sand philosophy on abortion was standard for Reform-Alliance and is not new for the Conservatives. MPs will continue hanging their heads as they apologize: “I am personally pro-life, but I won’t force my views. Please vote for me anyway.”
Meanwhile, the Liberal Party aggressively pushes an abortion-on-demand-up-to-the-ninth-month policy. […]
