Starkly Divided B.C. Legislature Breaks for Summer

  • The B.C. legislature ended a contentious session on May 29, 2025, after 56 new members joined, with the Conservatives as Official Opposition.
  • The session followed a fall election where the resurgent B.C. Conservative Party seized 44 seats, overtaking B.C. United from political obscurity.
  • The Conservatives faced internal dissent after three MLAs, led by Dallas Brodie, left to become Independents amid controversy over his comments on residential school graves.
  • The government’s agenda was disrupted by a tariff threat, prompting controversial bills 7, 14, and 15, which faced opposition but were passed using all political capital.
  • The session’s outcome leaves the NDP needing to address ongoing challenges in housing, affordability, reconciliation, and environment to meet public expectations.
