Liberal-Progressive was a label used by a number of candidates in Canadian elections between 1925 and 1953. In federal and Ontario politics there was no Liberal-Progressive Party,as such. The term generally referred to candidates endorsed by Liberal and Progressive constituency associations or to individual candidates who claimed the label,sometimes running against a straight Liberal or straight Progressive candidate. In Manitoba,a party existed with this name provincially,and Liberal-Progressives ran federally in Manitoba under the leadership of Robert Forke,with the support of the Liberal Party.
