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.

A thought for all the campaign staff on the BC NDP, Con and Green teams.
Politics is a volatile and unpredictable business. 8 weeks ago none of this was imaginable. And those in government had “secure” jobs.
Things change on a dime and you all pivoted into campaign, left your families for an intense battle over competing visions.
And now some will lose jobs and others will gain them. It can seem unfair and sudden (and it is) but that’s what the people decide.
Know that even though you are all doing political jobs - you too are public servants. We don’t say that enough but it’s true.
Our democracy depends on well functioning political parties and the staff who make that happen.
Thank you all for your service, whether you won or lost.

Obama: "That well-known evil empire Canada. That historical adversary of ours. Canada! *laughs* It's your neighbor. It's a few minutes' drive over the bridge! These are the people who gave us Martin Short and maple syrup. They are the nicest people! And someone we've gotten them so mad."

Bob Fife: "Let's remember where Danielle Smith comes from. She was a radio host for a long period of time. And her audience were the very same people who she's fed off of and encouraged who wanted to separate from the country."

Nathan Cooper, Alberta's man in Washington, spent $56,321.31 on hospitality on September 30, 2026.
What did he spend it on? We don't know. The UCP changed disclosure rules.
All we can do if hope it was worth it.

Chantal Hébert on Danielle Smith purging separatists from the UCP: "The strongest vote for a referendum on separation came in rural ridings. Those are ridings that have never elected anything other than a conservative, federally or provincially. So they are really her problem."

The BC Greens and Emily Lowan out here running an absolute clinic on digital political communications.
Some of the sharpest artillery aimed at the BC Conservatives this entire campaign.
No notes.
Absolute banger.

“Sylvestre refuses. “I won’t be the guy that splits the right. I will not come up with a new party,” he said. “If the progressives want to leave the UCP, they’re very welcome to do it. We’re not going anywhere.”

Americans also decide elections around the world. Or overturn them by force if they don’t like the outcome. Good work if you can steal it.

Well, looks like even poorly worded and with 4 Million in propaganda, #govSmith traitor is only going to manage 5 out of ten of her treasonous goals. Guess that is a pass in low achiever land.

If NDP loses the election they are 100% blaming it on the Green Party

More than 75% of Albertans chose Canadian unity and collaborative federalism.
Starting today, no matter how we voted, we must engage in constructive dialogue. This win compels us to listen, reflect, and address any outstanding issues. #ForeverCanadian and I will play a role.

That referendum sure wasn't worth the money, the division, the political goal of holding the UCP together. It was a political hoax. Column.
