The Canarian Independent Groups (Spanish: Agrupaciones Independientes de Canarias, AIC) were a Spanish political party based in the Canary Islands that existed from 1985 until its integration in Canarian Coalition.
The party was founded in 1985 with the name of Federation of Canarian Independent Groups (Spanish: Federación de Agrupaciones Independientes de Canarias), consisting of the union of different parties and groupings of insular scope, coming mostly from the former Union of the Democratic Centre (UCD). On 23 April 1986 they changed their name to Canarian Independent Groups. In 1987 it was joined by the Canarian Union of the Centre. The members of AIC were mainly centre-right and insularist political groups.
In 1993, together with the Canarian Nationalist Initiative (ICAN), Majorera Assembly (AM), Canarian Nationalist Party (PNC) and Canarian Independent Center (CCI) it formed Canarian Coalition (CC). However, in 1994, Independents of Fuerteventura (IF) and Independent Group of Lanzarote (transformed into the Party of Independents of Lanzarote (PIL)) abandon both Canarian Independent Groups and Canarian Coalition.
It obtained parliamentary representation in the general elections of 1986 and in the ones of 1989. It was dissolved definitively during the Canarian Coalition Congress celebrated in 18-19 May 2005, in which all the integral parties disappeared and CC became unique party.
