Seven legislators from the breakaway CentreBC party are rejoining the official Opposition B.C. Conservatives after NDP Leader David Eby called an early election for Oct. 24.
Eleanor Sturko says she is the sole CentreBC member who is not rejoining the Conservatives, who say interim leader Lorne Doerkson and CentreBC’s leader Peter Milobar “have come together to give British Columbians a viable governing alternative.”

The Conservatives say the election is “cynical” and not what British Columbians want, but it offers the province a hope for change.
The seven CentreBC legislators who are returning to the Conservative fold all resigned or were kicked out of the main Opposition caucus by former leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay, who quit on Sunday.
But Sturko, who was ejected last year by former Conservative leader John Rustad, says she can’t go back to a party that previously supported the repeal of the human rights code.
Eby is framing the snap election as an urgent necessity to respond to the threat posed by U.S. President Donald Trump and his trade war, calling it an “existential moment” for the province
More to come

SPINELESS. Dont yap about quitting the Conservatives out of conscience then go running back for self serving needs. Show some backbone for once and stop being a bunch of lying bottom feeding cowards. Especially people like Peter Milobar who quit cause he lost the leadership race then talks trash about the Cons then goes running back the second he thinks he can profit from it.
And lets be honest this isnt an election. Choosing between NDP and Conservatives is like choosing between cyanide and arsenic
