In 1958 a joint CCF-CLC committee,the National Committee for the New Party (NCNP),was formed and spent the next three years laying down the foundations of the "New Party". During the process of founding the party,the New Party name was used in the October 1960 Peterborough,Canadian federal by-election;which was won by its candidate,Walter Pitman. In August 1961,at the end of a five-day-long convention,the New Democratic Party (NDP) was born and Tommy Douglas was elected its first leader.

Canadian nationalism seeks to promote the unity,independence,and well-being of Canada and the Canadian people. Canadian nationalism has been a significant political force since the 19th century and has typically manifested itself as seeking to advance Canada's independence from influence of the United Kingdom and the United States. Since the 1960s,most proponents of Canadian nationalism have advocated a civic nationalism due to Canada's cultural diversity that specifically has sought to equalize citizenship,especially for Québécois and French-speaking Canadians,who historically faced cultural and economic discrimination and assimilationist pressure from English Canadian-dominated governments. Canadian nationalism became an important issue during the 1988 Canadian general election that focused on the then-proposed Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement,with Canadian nationalists opposing the agreement –saying that the agreement would lead to inevitable complete assimilation and domination of Canada by the United States. During the 1995 Quebec referendum on sovereignty that sought to determine whether Quebec would become a sovereign state or whether it would remain in Canada,Canadian nationalists and federalists supported the "no" side while Quebec nationalists largely supported the "yes" side,resulting in a razor-thin majority in favour of the "no" side that supported Quebec remaining in Canada.
