Créé en mai 2004. Le but est que le Parti PC reprenne sa place dans la vie politique Canadienne comme option modérée et centriste pour l'électorat. Un parti qui se concentre sur une perspective de tout le Canada, un parti qui envisage le Canada jouissant son propre rôle comme un pays indépendant et souverain en travaillant pour la résolution paisible des conflits, mais qui peut déployer une puissance militaire effective si nécessaire. 1, record 1, French, - Parti%20Progressiste%20Canadien
