The Rhinoceros Party of Canada
The Rhinoceros Party promised to declare war on Belgium because a Belgian cartoon character, Tintin, killed a rhinoceros in one of the cartoons. They then offered to call off the proposed Belgium-Canada war if Belgium delivered a case of mussels and a case of Belgian beer to Rhinoceros “Hindquarters” in Montreal (which the Belgian Embassy in Ottawa actually did, which led to the Rhinoceros Party gaining more votes in Quebec than any other political party, other than the reigning Liberals, in the 1980 election)
