The Rhinoceros Party of Canada fielded several candidates in the 1980 federal election, none of whom were elected.

Ontario

Vicki Butterfield (Broadview—Greenwood)

Butterfield, wife of noted computer expert Jim Butterfield,[1] ran a low-profile campaign. The Rhinoceros Party announced that she was "following the lead of another, more prominent candidate, and is hiding from the public".[2] This was likely a reference to Liberal leader Pierre Trudeau. She received 196 votes (0.61%), finishing fourth against New Democratic Party incumbent Bob Rae.
