Elections Manitoba has deregistered the Manitoba Party.

It says that under the Election Financing Act, if a registered party does not endorse at least five candidates in a general election, the Chief Electoral Officer of Manitoba must de-register it after the election.

The Manitoba Party supported smaller government and individual freedoms, and opposed COVID-19 restrictions.
