 * Redirect to Canadian Action Party. I ran a Proquest news archive search.  The sole profile I found was "A party leader comes back to her roots, Taylor, Mark. Moose Jaw Times Herald 13 Jan 2006 .  She did get a little coverage back in the day: Ideological Bedfellows: Despite coming from opposite sides of the political spectrum, activist Connie Fogal and former Vancouver councillor Jonathan Baker have united to give independent candidates a VOICE. The Vancouver Sun; Vancouver, B.C. [Vancouver, B.C]31 Aug 1996 "...activist-lawyer hitConnie hitFogal and former centre-right councillor Jonathan...".

 * Delete and/or redirect. This article was created in 2004, which means it's a leftover from our old notability standards for politicians under which being a party leader, even of a minor fringe party like Canadian Action, was considered an "inherent" notability freebie that conferred automatic inclusion rights and thereby exempted the person from having to be reliably sourced as long as her existence as a party leader was verifiable. But those aren't the standards that apply today: a party leader now has to have enough reliable source coverage about her to clear WP:GNG, which fringe party leaders often don't.
