The party was founded as an attempted union of five conservative parties: the Reform Party of BritishColumbia, the BritishColumbia Social Credit Party, the BritishColumbia Conservative Party, the BritishColumbiaParty, and the FamilyCoalitionParty of BritishColumbia.
The party was formed to present a united conservative option to voters in opposition to the BC Liberals and the New Democratic Party (NDP).
Five months after the party was founded, it nominated 56 candidates across the province for the May 16, 2001 provincial elections.
The two main parties are the Conservative party, descended from the old Tory party, and the Labour party, which was organized in 1906 and is moderately socialist.
Domestically the long ministry of Sir Robert Walpole (1721–42), during the reigns of George I and George II, was a period of relative stability that saw the beginnings of the development of the cabinet as the chief executive organ of government.
A coalition of labor and socialist groups, organized in 1900, became the Labour party in 1906.
