Canadian born Pamela Anderson announced on Friday that she was going to run for the Green Party in her home community of Nanaimo.
The former Baywatch star and Peta activist was spurred to run in part from the Green Party's exclusion from the leader's debate early this week.
"I've always been passionate about environmental activism," said Anderson. "This election just seemed like the perfect time to come forward and do my part."
Known for her provocative advertisement for animal rights, the former television star feels that politics would be a natural transition. She spent a lot of time working with high production teams before, and she feels that she could handle the pressures of political life.
