The Nationalist Canarian Initiative ( Spanish: Iniciativa Canaria Nacionalista; ICAN), initially called Canarian Initiative ( Spanish: Iniciativa Canaria), was a nationalist political party in the Canary Islands founded in 1991.
History
ICAN was founded in 1991, being originally was linked to the Canarian United Left (IUC) until a few months after the municipal elections of 1991, when a conflict arose between these two organizations. The PSOE ruled the Cabildo of Gran Canaria, but ICAN filed a censure motion (with the support of CDS and the PP). Following the motion of censure ICAN was expelled of IUC.
In 1993 ICAN merged with the AIC ( Canarian Independent Groups), AM ( Majorera Assembly), PNC ( Canarian Nationalist Party) and CCN ( Nationalist Canarian Centre) to form Canarian Coalition. [1]
