Episode Details

Two ex-Conservative MLAs in B.C., Ian Paton and Peter Milobar, are launching a new political party to fill the void left by the Conservatives’ direction under leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay. Both feel alienated by the party’s current path and aim to register before fall’s legislative session, hoping to attract voters disillusioned with the NDP but wary of the Conservatives. Their move follows a wave of resignations within the Conservative caucus since Findlay took over, including key leadership roles and even MLA Reann Gasper, who stepped aside to make way for Findlay’s byelection bid. This shake-up signals a brewing realignment in B.C. politics — and whether this new party can gain traction remains to be seen.
