Vancouver Island Party or The VanIsle Party is a political party in British Columbia, Canada. The party leader is Robin Richardson, who was a former Progressive Conservative Member of the Parliament of Canada in 1979-80. The party was formed in January 2015. The party proposes that Vancouver Island secede from British Columbia and become Canada's 11th province.
The party intended to have candidates in each of the 14 ridings on Vancouver Island for the provincial election on May 9, 2017, but only fielded four, all in the Greater Victoria area. None of its candidates was elected.
