Social Credit Party of Canada candidates in the 1984 Canadian federal election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Social Credit Party of Canada ran a number of candidates in the 1984 federal election, none of whom were elected.

Richelieu: Rénald Bibeau

[edit]

Rénald Bibeau listed himself as a day-worker.[1] He received 202 votes (0.42%), finishing sixth against Progressive Conservative candidate Louis Plamondon.

Hamilton East: Vince G. Vostrez

[edit]

Vostrez listed himself as a supervisor with National Steel Car. It is possible that he is the same person as "Vaclav George Vostrez", a steelworker who twice campaigned for the Social Credit Party in Hamilton East during the 1960s. For reasons of convenience, a single electoral history has been provided for both names.
