The Green candidate in Fleetwood filed a complaint with Elections BC because someone put up unauthorized signs on his behalf overnight. He includes photo of the fraudulent off-brand signs alternating with conservative signs. What a coincidence that would be. @ElectionsBC

Is he explaining to people individually how much car insurance would cost under his plan?

Yelling "go away" at journalists really captures the spirit of Lorne Doerkson's campaign...
Katie DeRosa (@katiederosayyj) profile pictureKatie DeRosa@katiederosayyjOct 23
Lorne Doerkson meets with volunteers and candidate Alex McMillan in Eby’s riding of Vancouver-Point Grey. It was supposed to be a photo op but a reporter asked Doerkson how he responds to Eby calling him a “Trojan horse” for extreme candidates. Here’s what he said: #bcpoli

Holy. Doerkson just snapped at a journalist for asking why he's been avoiding journalists. He's only held 4 media availabilities in the last 14 days and then has the gall to snap at a journalist for trying to ask him a question?

Lorne started this campaign thanking reporters for their questions. Yet he’s ending it by doing everything possible to avoid them.

Lorne "Trojan Horse" Doerkson gets a wee bit testy when reporters rightfully point out he hasn't taken questions or faced media for days now... #bcpoli

For whatever reason, the Conservative Party of BC is keeping media at arm’s length on election night in B.C. OPINION: No-coverage request from one local candidate. Really? surreynowleader.com/2026/10/…
OPINION: No contact request from local Conservative candidate? Really? - Surrey Now-Leader

Delta North candidate has asked there be 'no media coverage or media presence during election night'

“Mr. Doerkson is a Trojan horse filled with the most extreme views that British Columbians have ever seen running for office.” Tomorrow, let’s come together and keep the BC Conservatives out. Vote BC NDP.

It’s my second campaign here in Vancouver-Quilchena. I’ve heard from my neighbours that they want change and someone who will show up. I increased our vote share by 11% last time. Based on my convos at the door, we’re absolutely in play.
Katie DeRosa (@katiederosayyj) profile pictureKatie DeRosa@katiederosayyjOct 23
Replying to @katiederosayyj
Eby says he thinks the NDP can take Vancouver-Quilchena, pointing to the record of Dallas Brodie who was elected as a BC Conservative and is now leading OneBC. #bcpoli

Lorne is really embracing Doug’s sizzling 32% vote share and the notion that a guy who is entering his fifth term represents change
Bob Mackin (@bobmackin) profile pictureBob Mackin@bobmackinOct 23
Yes, that is Doug McCallum and that is Christy Clark. Are the Conservatives trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? #bcpoli

I'm pretty shocked that Emily Lowan didn't rule out putting the Conservatives in power yesterday. They would be catastrophic on Indigenous rights and environmental protection, and countless other progressive causes. The answer to this question should be clear: rule it out.

Greens “don’t think we can rule anything out” on supporting Conservatives?? With Conservatives’ extremist views, & repealing DRIPA, I’m shocked the Green’s leader said this. We agree with Greens on a lot. But 100% disagree on this. #bcpoli

Will Emily Lowan work with the BC Conservatives if there’s a minority? 😳 Sonia Furstenau took a very different approach in 2024, ruling out supporting the Conservatives because of their homophobia and conspiracy theories. #bcpoli #vanpoli
