Elections Canada has launched a new website with information on Canada’s 18 registered political parties, but according to Canada.com, at least one party has been unregistered; the 'Work Less Party' does not appear.
The Work Less Party campaigns for a 32-hour work-week with the motto, ‘Workers of the World Relax.’ If their YouTube postings are any indication, the Work Less Party is really the 'Work Less, Party More' party, but don't let their love of fun fool you into thinking that they don't have serious points to make. Books and other resources on the site help to make the case that working less is better for everybody.
