Patriot Party of Canada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Patriot Party of Canada is an internet-based Canadian political party founded in 2001 by Daniel R. Perley, an advanced technology executive and consultant from Ottawa.
The website lists a 13-member party executive, which includes Ken Sweigard, leader of the Social Credit party for a time in the 1980s, and Marianne Wilkinson, a former Mayor of the City of Kanata, near Ottawa.
Following the initial posting of information on the website, there does not appear to have been any organizational activity.

[edit] Current status
The Patriot Party of Canada has had limited growth because of lack of funding. Its organizers are waiting for a majority government to be formed so that they will have a four-year period in which to put in place a national organization and field a credible number of candidates in the subsequent election.
