I'm not convinced this was ever a political party in canada. there have been a few parties, provincial and federal, with "unity" or "united" in the title, so perhaps "unity" was a shorthand term for some short-lived party in canada, or a party that was never officially registered, but the information on this page has zero citation, and contradicts actual sources.AnieHall (talk) 08:06, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Political parties were not formally registered in Canada until the 1972 election. In any case, a number of sources speak of Unity or Progressive Unity and according to the Parliament of Canada website she was elected under the "Unity" label. Sources are now listed. You say this contradicts "actual sources" - please list those sources. I suggest you consult the following book for more information: Faith Johnston. A Great Restlessness: The Life and Politics of Dorise Nielsen. Winnipeg: University of Manitoba Press, 2006. xi + 312 pp. $24.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-88755-690-6.

opening sentence

the opening sentence. look at it.

also, "united progressives" was an actual party. "unity" probably not. AnieHall (talk) 08:10, 12 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Both names seem to have been used. According to the House of Commons website Nielsen ran and was elected as a "Unity" MP. See [1] Downwoody (talk) 19:33, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
