Although Tymiński was born in Pruszków, he was completely unknown in his native Poland until shortly before the 1990 presidential election, he emerged from the first ballot as the second strongest candidate, defeating liberal prime minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki and forcing Solidarity leader Lech Wałęsa to stand a second ballot. After Wałęsa defeated him by a wide margin, Tymiński was a leader of Party X in Poland (1990-1995) and then returned to Canada to resume his business activities. Tymiński also ran in the 2005 Polish presidential election.) |
