摘要

Having been in power for 55 of the past 70 years, the Liberals have earned the tide of Canada's perpetual ruling party. The Conservatives, traditionally the main opposition, last saw office a dozen years ago and were all but wiped out in an election in 1993. So when 2,900 Conservative delegates gathered last week in Montreal for a policy-setting convention, the questions nagging many were why the political pendulum swings so rarely-and whether they can now make it do so again. The Conservatives do not lack reasons for hope. The convention was the first since the merger in October 2003 of the two parties into which the right had splintered-the Canadian Alliance and the Progressive Conservatives. The new party has a youngish, intelligent and presentable leader in Stephen Harper. Its 99 MPS and its shadow cabinet are not devoid of talent or experience (if not necessarily of cabinet office). Yet if the Conservatives are to turf out the minority Liberal government of Paul Martin at the next general election-probably little more than a year away-they still have work to do.
