Party Members: Party Membership

party members: Ontario MP Michael Chong said nixing the party membership fee would help attract the young people, new Canadians and urban-dwellers the party so badly needs, according to Brandon Sun. We need to build a much bigger Conservative party, Chong said. Candidates clashed over whether to make party membership free, called for a more positive message to Canadians and lamented the party failure to master social media. Longtime Calgary MP Deepak Obhrai echoed the sentiment We need to build that base. Many party members have since complained that the party failed to generate enthusiasm with its largely stay-the-course proposals. The Conservatives are trying to rebound from a resounding loss in the October 2015 ballot that saw Justin Trudeau Liberals win a majority, reducing the Tories to official Opposition status.
