B.C. Conservative leader ‘ready to rock’
British Columbia Conservative Leader Lorne Doerkson admits to some frustration in the starting days of the provincial election but now says his party is "ready to rock."
VANCOUVER – British Columbia Conservative Party leader Lorne Doerkson expresses his excitement about the upcoming provincial election, stating that his party is "ready to rock." Despite initial frustrations, Doerkson has been actively engaging with former and current premiers, Christy Clark and Scott Moe, to listen to their advice on how to change government in British Columbia.
The Conservative Party's snap election was called just days after the B.C. Conservative leader Kerry-Lynne Findlay resigned due to a caucus revolt. Findlay's resignation was followed by the cancellation of a byelection she had planned to continue in. Doerkson, who held a media availability with caucus members and supporters, emphasized the importance of building a strong team and bringing people together.
The party has not yet launched a full campaign, but Doerkson has announced that they aim to put Conservatives in all 93 ridings of the province, with the vetting process for candidates already underway.
