Before the advent of Labour Parties in Canada, parties made up of trade unionists, labour rights MP's and MLA's ran for existing parties either Liberal or Conservative as hyphenated labour candidates. Thus you would have Labour Liberals or Labour Tories. Today in Alberta we have such a MLA in Dan Backs who was kicked out of the Liberals and sits as and independent. Perhaps we can call him Independent Labour Liberal.
