Episode Details

Two ex-Conservative MLAs in B.C. — Ian Paton and Peter Milobar — are launching a new political party to fill the void for voters frustrated with both the NDP and the Conservatives under new leadership. Paton, from Delta South, says the direction of the Conservative party no longer aligns with him, and he’s teaming up with Milobar to create a home for disenchanted conservatives and independents. They aim to register the party before October 5th, and while they start as a duo, Milobar expects more support from within the former caucus. Their move comes amid major internal turmoil in the Conservative party since Kerry-Lynne Findlay took over, including resignations from top roles and even MLA Reann Gasper stepping aside to make way for Findlay. This shake-up signals a seismic shift in B.C.’s political landscape.
