The Liberal-Conservative Party was the formal name of the Conservative Party of Canada until 1873, although some Tory candidates continued to run under the label into the 20th century.
In the 1957 Canadian election, George Rolland, a watchmaker, sought election as a Liberal Conservative Coalition candidate in the Toronto riding of Eglinton. He placed last, winning only 252 votes, or 0.7% of the total. Both the Liberal and Conservative parties nominated candidates in the riding, so Rolland did not have the endorsement of either party.
