Nonpartisanism
Nonpartisanism is a lack of affiliation with, and a lack of bias towards, a political party.

Canada In Canada, the Legislative Assembly of the Northwest Territories and the Legislative Assembly of Nunavut are the only bodies at the provincial/territorial level that are currently nonpartisan; they operate on a consensus government system.
