The Progressive Conservative Association of Nova Scotia,[4] more commonly known as the Progressive Conservative Party of Nova Scotia, is a Red Tory conservative[2] political party in Nova Scotia, Canada. Like most conservative parties in Atlantic Canada, it has been historically associated with the Red Tory[5] faction of Canadian conservatism. The party is currently led by Pictou East MLA Tim Houston. The party won a majority government in the 2021 provincial election.[6][7] The Progressive Conservative Party of Nova Scotia and the Conservative Party of Canada are two separate entities.[8][9]
