Show detail Hide detail

This sub-series consists of correspondence, memos, informational material, press clippings and the occasional speech. There are P.C. Party press releases, as well as campaign preparation materials. Some retro files from 1983, News and Views, instructing campaigners on how to work an election, may have been used during the election of 2002. There are files on the King-Hants By-election, when Mr. Clark won a seat in the House in 2000 after he had won the Party leadership in 1998. There are several files which indicate Maureen McTeer's contribution to Mr. Clark's political activities. Other files reflect Mr. Clark's winning of the Party leadership, and recommendations and suggestions from important P.C. Party figures on policies to promote. There are some files on the attempt by Mr. Clark to bring moderate Reform members into an alliance, in the PC/DR Coalition experiment. Several files hold P.C.-Reform merger talks, the P.C.-Alliance merger talks, and finally there is a file on Harper as a dangerous ideologue. As is evident from the above, this sub-series is somewhat all over, but it does hold very important information on the P.C. Party trying to stay alive, under Joe Clark, in the face of the Reform / Alliance threat.
