=Robert John (Ron) Walker (St. Catharines)=
Walker is a perennial candidate for the Canadian House of Commons, and lists his occupation as a factory worker. He first sought election as a candidate of the Marxist-Leninist Party in the 1979 federal election, and finished last in a field of six candidates in Welland with 62 votes. The winner was Gib Parent of the Liberal Party of Canada. Walker campaigned again in the 1980 election, and again finished last against Parent.
He contested Welland—St. Catharines—Thorold as an independent candidate in the 1988 election, as the Marxist-Leninist Party was not registered. He finished fifth out of six candidates; Parent was again the winner.
Walker also campaigned for the House of Commons as a Marxist-Leninist in the 1997, 2000 and 2004 elections, and each time finished in last place against a candidate of the Liberal Party.
The 1999 Ontario election was Walker's only venture into provincial politics, to date. He received 154 votes (0.33%), finishing in last place against Liberal incumbent Jim Bradley.
Recently, Walker returned to university, where he is working on a Master's Thesis on C. B. Macpherson and the Canadian working class. He is currently inactive in electoral politics.
