Christian Heritage Party candidates, multiple elections

"'The following article is a list of people who have contested several elections for the Christian Heritage Party of Canada, but whose personal biography is otherwise too short to merit a separate article. It eliminates redundant references under each year's list of party candidates.

Colin George Atkins

Colin George Atkins is a political activist in Manitoba, Canada. He is a leading figure in the province's Christian Heritage Party organization, having run for the party on four occasions. He has also campaigned for provincial office as an independent candidate (the CHP does not run candidates at the provincial level).

Atkins was born in Leeds, England on June 24, 1931, and moved to Canada in 1952. [ [http://www.theglobeandmail.com/series/election/2000Federal/candidates-new/1127.html "Colin Atkins: No Affiliation"] , "Election 2000", "Globe and Mail", accessed 15 October 2007.] He now lives in Souris, Manitoba. Now retired, he has been involved with the Christian Heritage Party (CHP) since 1987, and was the President of its Manitoba organization for three years.

Geoffrey Capp

Geoffrey Capp is a Canadian minor-party politician. Born in 1959 in London, Ontario, Canada), he has run six times for election in Canada, most of them federally in the Yukon for the Christian Heritage Party of Canada.

Capp ran for the CHP in the Yukon constituency in the 1993, 1997, 2000 and 2004 federal elections, and once for the CHP in the Lethbridge constituency in the 2008 election. Capp also ran once for the Yukon Legislative Assembly in the 2002 territorial election.

In 2000, the CHP was not a registered party, so candidates including Capp were listed as "no affiliation".

In 2002, Capp ran without affiliation in the Yukon territory election in McIntyre-Takhini riding. He won 15 votes, 1.66% of the total, losing to John Edzerza of the Yukon Party.

Capp had supported the Progressive Conservative Party from about 1977 to 1987, but abandoned it because of what he saw as scandals and financial incompetence of the Mulroney government.

He is an Evangelical Christian and member of the Church of the Nazarene.
