338 British Columbia Update: A Dead Heat at the Starting Line

Early polling out of B.C. shows NDP and Conservatives tied as four-week campaign kicks off.

The British Columbia general election campaign is under way, with election day set for Saturday, October 19, 2024.

Let’s take a look at the latest provincial polls out of British Columbia, then we will get to the 338Canada update at the starting line of the campaign.
