Overview

  • One BC formally registered with Elections BC on June 12, listing Dallas Brodie as interim leader and Tara Armstrong as house leader.
  • The party platform proposes defunding the reconciliation industry, eradicating gender ideology in schools, ending mass immigration, introducing private health care options and new infrastructure funding models.
  • Dallas Brodie was expelled from the BC Conservatives in March over comments on residential schools and Tara Armstrong quit in solidarity, leaving both to sit as independents.
  • Peace River North MLA Jordan Kealy confirmed he will remain an independent rather than join One BC.
  • The NDP caucus denounced One BC’s policies as divisive and harmful, foreshadowing heightened political tensions ahead of the 2028 election.
