Independent (politician)
An independent politician or non-affiliated politician is a politician not affiliated with any political party or bureaucratic association. There are numerous reasons why someone may stand for office as an independent. Some politicians have political views that do not align with the platforms of any political party and therefore they choose not to affiliate with them. Some independent politicians may be associated with a party, perhaps as former members of it or else have views that align with it, but choose not to stand in its name, or are unable to do so because the party in question has selected another candidate. Others may belong to or support a political party at the national level but believe they should not formally represent it (and thus be subject to its policies) at another level. In some cases, a politician may be a member of an unregistered party and therefore officially recognised as an independent. Officeholders may become independents after losing or repudiating a ...

However, Prime Minister Brian Mulroney told the press following a meeting with the Quebec Liberal Party leader Robert Bourassa that he did not support the creation of a provincial Progressive Conservative Party. By the 1980s, the conservative Union Nationale was no longer a contender for office and in terminal decline, but it rebuffed an offer by Asselin for a merger with his Progressive Conservative Party.
