A Blue Grit,[1][2][3] also known as a Blue Liberal,[4][5][6][7] is a Canadian political term for a right of centre member or supporter of the federal Liberal Party, or many of the provincial Liberal parties in Canada.[8] Blue Grits generally advocate for Liberals to adopt a liberal conservatism, mixing fiscal conservatism and economic liberalism,[9] while also emphasizing socially liberal or progressive policies. The term has also been applied to former Progressive Conservative Party of Canada members who are now Liberals, such as Scott Brison, David Orchard, and John Herron.[citation needed]
