Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Neil Paterson (politician)
The subject is not |notable. Newspaper coverage only resulted from his having been a founding member of the Natural Law Party of Canada. Although he ran in three elections, he garnered only a small percentage of the vote, and his party subsequently disbanded with little or no lasting legacy (their advocacy of applying science to government, and their promotion of Transcendental Meditation were both unusual and might even be considered a breath of fresh air, but seem to have made little impression on either the public or on Canadian government). Paterson is apparently a businessman, but is not known for any other achievements, and he was not even personally involved in the small scandal that is reported briefly in the article. This is perhaps the least relevant article in the Transcendental Meditation project, having very little to do with that topic
