cool. i don’t really want higher taxes but do want peace and justice. are there any other colors of tories to choose from? could i be a blue or green tory? if not, i’ll go ahead and be a red one.
Ha! Red Tory is, well, the “left” side of the conservative party in Canada. Attaching individual rights and freedoms to things usually defined as “the common good”. A concept of liberty more defined by the community than the individual (which is a distinction, I think, between conservatives in Canada and republicans in the US). A Red Tory, for instance, would view the dispersal of wealth via taxes from the “haves” to the “have nots” as a necessity for the polity as a whole. Bringing the wealth gap from pretax 24:1 to post tax 15:1 would be a red Tory mandate.
