Federal politics
The Conservative Party of Canada is legally distinct in name and structure from the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party. There is considerable overlap between students involved in both political parties. A number of campus organizations recognized by the Ontario PC Party are also affiliated with the Conservative Party of Canada, creating an indirect connection.
