In 1993 Parliament passed Bill C-114, which amended the Election Act in a manner that

can best be described as draconian... reprehensible... sinister... anti-democratic.

Bill C-114 received all-party support (boo, hiss, shame, shame on this house!)

As a result, Canada's most beloved political party - the legendary, fun-loving Parti

Rhinoceros Party - was deregistered. The Rhino became extinct. That was the intent of

Bill C-114.

The courts have since ruled that most of the most heinous amendments to the

Election Act were unconstitutional.

Today, 14 years later, we call upon the legions of Rhino lovers (um... there may be a

better way to phrase that but... ) to help BRING THE RHINO BACK FROM EXTINCTION.

Surely in a country of 30 odd million people (30 million odd people?) there are 250

Canadians who are willing to become the founding members of the re-animated Rhino

Party.

If you want to have the honour being a founding member; if you want to right the

wrong that was done by the evil-doers of the 34th Parliament of Canada; if you want

to rise up and gleefully shriek, "Long live the Rhino Party!", all you have to do is print

out and fill in this form and send it to:

Rhino Party # 219 2001 Wall Street Vancouver BC V5L 5E4

The forms will be sent to Elections Canada (boo, hiss). Elections Canada will contact

you to assure that you, indeed, are a proud member of the Rhino Party. You will need

to confirm that you are a Rhino and...  we're back in business!

Let the games continue!

"Congratulations! YOU are the new Leader of the Rhino Party. No... seriously. This is a purpose-built DIY party so stick on the ice and have fun out there!"
