History
T.H.B. Symons was chairman of the Policy Advisory Committee to Robert L. Stanfield from 1968-1975. This Committee was established by Robert L. Stanfield in order to "revamp the [Progressive] Conservative Party in the wake of the Diefenbaker debacle, partly by attracting bright, new M.P.s, partly by trying to convince Quebecers that the Conservatives were more than just a party of les anglais" (Taken from: Tailor, Charles. "Radical Tories." p. 194).
