There is still a possibility that Premier-designate Lorne Doerkson will call for a fall legislative session, as he said on Monday that he is eager to get to work.
“A better economy, a better health-care system, safer streets, that is what we were sent here to do, that is what we are going to do and it is my intention to do it as quickly as possible,” Doerkson said on Monday.
All 93 writs will be returned by Nov. 18, marking the end of the election, with MLAs sworn in the next day and Doerkson and his ministers to be sworn in on Nov. 20.

“There’s a political communications side of this that’s just demonstrating to the public that after nine years of NDP government, there’s a new sheriff in town and they’re getting down to business right away,” Andrew Reeve, a communications and public affairs professional with Earnscliffe, said.
The urgency is fueling speculation there could be a brief fall session of the legislature, allowing the new government to quickly fulfill some election promises.
However, Doerkson has not confirmed anything at this time.
Former premier David Eby launched his 100 days of progress immediately after succeeding John Horgan in 2022. In 2013, Christy Clark quickly recalled the legislature after a May election and introduced her first budget in late June.
This new government may choose to quickly show progress before the heavy lifting of a throne speech and budget early next year, but speculation remains at this time.
BTW not religious. There is no such things as god, spirits or anything else.
Go to any Rez if you are looking for little k!ds JV. You sound like you have a lot of experience. Why do you think the highway of tears runs right thru dozens of reservations. All the k!ds running away from the Rez? Why?
That’s what the enquiry found out and why report was never widely publicised. All FN on FN and mostly with someone they knew.
Is that another FN tradition handed down generation to generation?
At Below. Probably JV!
Wow there is one bitter bitter NDP loser. Only Insults?!? 😂 😂 😂
That was one of the biggest landslides since Chrsty Clark blew out the NDP in 2001!!! 😂
She hand over a surplus budget and Eby has driven up a huge debt, with massive deficits, gridlocked our economy with DRIPa, given away public access and public assets.
How can the Cons do worse!
“BC Conservatives could have a fall legislative session as party eager to get to work…” – destroying our province!! F*ckers.
I’m attracted to little boys. I know I have a problem and I need help. What can I say it’s a white Christian thing I guess 🤷🏻
GBL reset comments after the first 15 comments!! 😂
Didn’t like the conservative enthusiasm and anti DRIPa sentiment that was pour out!
No surprise there.
Go Cons Go!
Bring on this War! 🙄 😂
That’s a breath of fresh air, government employees that ACTUALLY want to do their jobs instead of just lounging around soaking up the job benefits. I wonder if the conservative party will take a 6 month vacation like the liberals did?
Oh yeah, these people actually hold down jobs and work for a living. Silly me, I must have forgot!
