I'm not necessarily asking if we could be the 'ruling party.' I mean how well could we do.

Actually, I said country, not county.

Not very.  They're further to the right than our Conservative Party, and those guys only do so-so.

How many seats in Parliament could we win? Do you have proportional representation, or is it like the United States?

See Richius' post.  I can't think of anything specific at the moment, but the Conservative Party of Canada tends to be especially a lot more socially liberal than the Republican Party.  They do oppose same-sex marriage, but they're in favor of civil unions as a compromise.  I forget what the GOP's stance on civil unions is.

Our official stance as a party is opposed to civil unions, though the president favors them.

I don't know what the general consensus is within our party.

From what I'm hearing so far, it sounds like the Conservatives are a lot like our Democrats.

How about this: what are the Conservatives' main disagreements with the United States Democratic Party?

Great. If they don't vote against their economic interest, the GOP will win landslides.
