I don't know that I'd necessarily agree with that. I think Canada as a whole is much more socially progressive than it used to be. You'd probably have your Reform types split off and it might affect votes in rural Alberta and Saskatchewan, but a PC party without the Reform baggage would be a strong competitor in most of the urban centres.
EDIT: Keep in mind that many of those Reformers are going to be dead in the next 10-20 years anyways.
