Ahead of Party Convention, Social Conservatives Mobilize to Advance SoCon Policies
Social conservatives are more organized than they’ve been in decades as they mobilize to get their core issues integrated into the Conservative Party’s platform at its upcoming convention, according to a leading advocacy group for SoCon issues.
“Social conservatives are revitalized across the country. I think they’re engaged more than they have been in 30 years,” said Jack Fonseca, director of political operations for Campaign Life Coalition (CLC), a pro-life advocacy group representing around 270,000 members.
Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) members across the country are now electing delegates from every riding to vote on policy and elect a National Council, where federal decisions are made for the party. Delegates will represent members’ interests at the national policy convention, to be held virtually from March 18 to 20.
