Citizens' Party (Finnish: Kansalaispuolue r.p., Swedish: Medborgarpartiet r.p.) is a Finnish political party, founded in 2016. It was founded by the long-time politician and a Member of the European Parliament Paavo Väyrynen, who left Centre Party in early 2016. Väyrynen acted as the first chairman of the party until July 2017, when he was followed by Sami Kilpeläinen.
The party did not take part in the 2017 municipal elections, although Väyrynen was elected to the City Council of Helsinki as an independent candidate.
