Ontario New Democratic Party The Ontario New Democratic Party (ONDP or NDP; French: Nouveau Parti dÃ©mocratique de l'Ontario)[3] is a social democratic political party in Ontario, Canada. The Ontario NDP, led by Andrea Horwath since March 2009, currently forms the Official Opposition in Ontario following the 2018 general election. It is a provincial section of the federal New Democratic Party. It was formed in October 1961 from the Ontario section of the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (Ontario CCF) and the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL).
Conservative Party of Canada In 2003, the Canadian Alliance and the Progressive Conservatives merged, forming the Conservative Party of Canada.[13] The unified Conservative Party generally favours lower taxes, small government, more decentralization of federal government powers to the provinces modeled after the Meech Lake Accord and a tougher stand on "law and order" issues. The party won two minority governments after the 2006 federal election, and a majority government in the 2011 federal election before being defeated in the 2015 federal election by a majority Liberal government.[21]
