The New West Progressives (NWP) are a municipal political party in New Westminster, a city in British Columbia, Canada. Despite the 'progressive' name, they maintain a more conservative platform, and were formed to oppose the social democratic municipal government of the late 2010s.[1][2] The party does not have any formal affiliations with other political parties at the municipal, provincial, or federal level. They were the first municipal political party to be formed in New Westminster.
