[edit] Vicki Butterfield (Broadview—Greenwood)

The Rhinoceros Party announced that Butterfield was "following the lead of another, more prominent candidate, and is hiding from the public".[1] This was likely a reference to Pierre Trudeau. She received 196 votes (0.61%), finishing fourth against New Democratic Party incumbent Bob Rae.
