The @Conservative_BC actually received 50,000 fewer votes than in 2024 (but won 20 more seats) because the @bcndp vote dropped by 275.000 (29%) while the @BCGreens got 23,000 more votes than last time (+13%) - still some ballots to be counted.

Voter turnout in BC dropped substantially in this election - down from 58.45% in 2024 to 48.06% (previous low was 53.86% in the 2020 pandemic election). Advance voting was also down 11% Lots of likely causes but approx 300,000 voters stayed away compared with last time.
Finally some reason for optimism for Metro #Vancouver skiers and snowboarders as the local ski hills including @Cypressmtn get their first snowfall of the season. @GlobalBC @CKNW @simisara730CKNW

Notes from Whitecaps training today:
MΓΌller, Badwal and Adekugbe all involved at varying levels as they work back from injury. Lighter recovery session for those who played Saturday in Austin.
Might be the healthiest this team has been all season. Encouraging timing. #VWFC

Eby refuses to provide specifics when asked by @jarmstrongbc how much he and his wife donated to their childrenβs daycare after it became a $10/day facility:
βWe paid the difference between what it was before and what it was after.β
Thanks Kelly! Happy Thanksgiving!
