File:Lpclogo1970s.PNG Was this actually the logo at the time of the convention? thumb|center|600px This picture of the podium (above) suggests the logo was a sectioned red maple leaf. I believe the "L" logo was used throughout the 1970s and into the early 1980s (but abandoned once Turner became leader) and it may have been used during the 1968 election but I don't think it was in use as early as the 1968 convention. Do we have any evidence that it was? Homey 22:09, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
I believe that there is a difference between the party logo and the party's election logo. This distinction is used to help differentiate between non-campaign materials and campaign materials subject to election spending laws. The PC Party also used to have a party logo ( the P-maple-leaf-C logo ) and campaign logos. The sectioned maple leaf was the LPC logo apparently from the late 60s and through the 70s, and the "L" logo was the party's election logo in at least 72, 74, 79 and 80. I don't know what they used in 68. Ground Zero | t 23:17, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
That might be the case today but I believe it wasn't until the 1970s that we had election spending laws so it wouldn't have been the case in '68. Homey 23:38, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Check this out. It is a picture from the CBC Trudeau movie. The movies are usually pretty acurate and behind Trudeau on his sing you can see the split maple leaf logo. Purhaps Earl could make a logo such as that? - MS123
Re the Turner era - For the 1984 election campaign, the Turner campaign dropped the 'Cube L' in favour of the 'Team Turner' logo of a half maple leaf within an italicized captial L, with 'Turner' on the left side. [2] Many candidates continued to use the 'Cube L' with either the 10 point leaf or a regular leaf.
I do remember the leaf-within-a-leaf being first used in the 1988 election as well as in a 1990 by-election and certain recycled election signs (Bill Graham in 1993, Tom Wappel until 2006), although the traditional Cube L was also used.
