Natural Law Party of Canada
The Natural Law Party of Canada (NLPC) was the Canadian branch of the international Natural Law Party founded in 1992 by a group of educators, business leaders, and lawyers who practiced Transcendental Meditation.〔R. Roth, ''The Natural Law Party: A Reason to Vote'', page 285. St. Martin's Press, 1998〕
==Description and history==
The magician Doug Henning was senior vice president of NLPC, and ran as the party's candidate for the former Toronto riding of Rosedale in the 1993 federal election, finishing sixth out of ten candidates.〔(Gardner, Martin, "Doug Henning and the Giggling Guru", ''The Committee for Skeptical Inquiry'' Vol 19.3 (May/June 1995) )〕〔("'Have rabbit, will travel': Yogic flyer's Natural Law Party failed to capture the imagination", ''National Post'' (UK) (February 20, 2000) )〕〔("Rosedale, Ontario (1933-1996)", ''History of Federal Ridings Since 1867'' )〕
The NLPC supported federal funding for further research in the technique of yogic flying, a part of the TM-Sidhi program, as a tool for achieving world peace. The NLPC platform maintained that once it took over the government, Canada’s crime, unemployment, and deficit would disappear.〔 In a 1993 news article, Naomi Rankin, the leader of the Communist Party of Alberta, referred to the NLP as "crackpot". One of its slogans was "If you favor Natural Law, Natural Law will favor you." The party was de-registered by Elections Canada, the Canadian government's election agency, on January 23, 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Registered Political Parties and Parties Eligible for Registration )〕
