Blue Tory

A Blue Tory in Canadian politics is a conservative who advocates for free-market or economically liberal policies.[1] The term has been applied to members of the modern Conservative Party of Canada and provincial Progressive Conservative parties, as well as the historical Progressive Conservative Party of Canada, Reform Party of Canada and Canadian Alliance. In contemporary language, Blue Tories are sometimes described as "true-blue Conservatives".[2]
