B.C. Election Campaign Ends With Tight Race Between NDP and Conservatives

As British Columbians prepare to vote, the political landscape is set for a potential shift with a polarized legislature expected.

The B.C. election campaign has been marked by a close contest between the NDP, led by David Eby, and the Conservatives, led by John Rustad.
Key issues debated include housing, health care, affordability, and the overdose crisis, with both parties presenting divergent solutions.
The NDP promises include a 'grocery rebate,' expanded health care services, and increased involuntary care for mental health issues.
Conservative leader John Rustad proposes tax rebates for housing, private-sector healthcare expansion, and ending the 'safer supply' drug program.
Despite controversies surrounding the Conservative campaign, polls indicate a statistical dead heat with the NDP as voters express dissatisfaction with current policies.
