Not sure how well a CP provincial party would fare in Ontario if say the Conservative leader of the day said stupid things like declaring he would shut down the manufacturing industry in Ontario. Singh has done the Alberta NDP's zero favors.

Not just associated, but the actual same party. The NDP is the one party where if you're a provincial member, you're a federal member as well. The other parties are affiliated in name only.
