The '''Liberal Party of Canada''', or '''Parti Libéral du Canada''' is a [[Canadian]] federal political party.  Other Liberal parties exist in all of the Canadian provinces, but only the ones in [[New Brunswick]], [[Prince Edward Island]], [[Nova Scotia]] and [[Newfoundland and Labrador]] are directly affiliated with the federal party as its provincial wings, with all others having since split from the federal Liberals at various times (in fact, one of those parties, the British Columbia Liberal Party, broke ties with the federal Liberals in 1987 and, after moving centre-right, succeeded long-governing conservative party the British Columbia Social Credit Party as that province's main conservative political party).
