So growing up in America there are really only 2 major political parties, the Democrats, and the Republicans. I know that NS is very diverse so if there are any weird or unusual political parties you want to talk about please be welcome
Example: Here in America famous rapper Kanye West started the birthday party because, "When he wins it will be a party for everyone"

I am a national anarchist (I'm a traditionalist, a nationalist, a socialist and an anarchist). I guess this is considered unusual.

I don't want to act like I'm "omg so quirky" but I have yet to meet someone else who was a libertarian Cajun nationalist that believes the role of the government is to be a sugar daddy that gives free healthcare, guns, education, and birth control to the common people before promptly fucking off and leaving everyone alone.

Here in the Netherlands we have the Pirate Party! Then again we have a lot of political parties here, but that's good. I think having multiple political parties in a parliament is a sign of a healthy democracy. That way various groups get to voice their views, and people will be forced to cooperate to govern. That pushes people to compromise. I couldn't imagine living in a country with only two parties.

But anyway, the Pirate Party is a legit party with a reasonable political agenda. They're really pro transparency, public privacy, everyone having free access to media and such. There's also a party called "Jesus Lives" and it's a very Christian party, but they don't seem to have much of a political agenda. They're just very pro-Christian, which is totally not my cup of tea. We also have the Party for the Animals, it's a serious party with a solid political agenda that focuses on animals and nature. They want more rights for animals of course, which is a fair, and why I support their views.

I'm fairly regular when it comes to political views. According to tests my views align most with liberal socialism, which seems to be fairly accurate. I always considered myself firmly on the left, and I admit that with the radicalisation of the right I feel more and more inclined to go further to the left. Once I was not in favour of communism, but these days I find there's some interesting viewpoints to it.

Canada has the Rhinoceros Party, which has no seats in Parliament, but is still a pretty weird political party.

Their proposed policies include:

Promoting higher education by building taller schools
Eliminating small businesses and replacing them with very small businesses (each with less than 1 employee)
Building one nuclear power plant per household
Seating the "Queen of Canada" in Buckingham, Quebec
Repealing the Law of Gravity (how does that even work?)
Turn Great Britain into Canada's 11th Province
Declaring war on Belgium because Tintin, created by a Belgian author, kills a rhino

Making bubble gum the offical currency of Canada, since bubble gum can be inflated and deflated at will
Turning Rue Ste. Catherine (St. Catherine Street) in Montreal into the world's longest bowling alley.
Instituting illiteracy, along with English and French, as the official languages of Canada

Me too. And I'm quite certain that the Americans did, in fact, steal some islands from the Thousand Islands.
