John Horgan

Premier David Eby said he could sense the spirit of former British Columbia premier John Horgan at a swearing-in ceremony Wednesday for 47 New Democrat members of the legislature.

Horgan served as B.C.'s New Democrat premier for five years before stepping down in 2022, then was appointed ambassador to Germany last year.

Because B.C. LNG production is expected to ramp up at precisely the same time global production plateaus, the province “will not have a first mover advantage, and its output will be competing in a highly competitive global market,” a new report finds.

A day before the official start, British Columbia's election campaign sees B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad and Green Party Leader Sonia Furstenau speaking to municipal leaders, while NDP Leader David Eby is gearing up to get his campaign bus rolling.

BC Hydro says in a statement that the filling of the reservoir is one of the last steps toward starting operations for the controversial dam project, located about 14 kilometres southwest of Fort St. John, B.C.

The NDP is expected to hold onto two British Columbia ridings where byelections will be held on Saturday, June 24, 2023, after the resignations of senior government figures, but the parties that take second place could provide hints about the next general election.

Legislation in the United States that could trigger an end to seasonal time changes in Canada is moving forward again, as Canadians get ready to wind their clocks ahead an hour before going to bed Saturday night.

The failure of a massive, multi-year money laundering investigation to yield charges is a "shocking" example of the shortfalls of federal financial crime law, British Columbia Premier David Eby said on Thursday, March 2, 2023.

No charges will be laid from a money laundering investigation into millions of dollars that moved through British Columbia casinos and Chinese bank accounts in what the province's attorney general called a "frustrating" end to the multi-year police probe.

British Columbia's New Democrat government says it plans to put this year's projected budget surplus of almost $6 billion to work helping families and businesses as an economic slowdown looms and extra dollars are expected to dry up.

A refreshed housing plan and health care, public safety, environment and cost-of-living initiatives will be the focus of the British Columbia New Democrat government's political agenda over the coming months, says house leader Ravi Kahlon.

British Columbia Premier David Eby unveiled a new-look cabinet on Wednesday, December 7, 2022, that elevates several first-time ministers to prominent positions, retains veterans in long-held posts and moves the finance minister to a post-secondary education portfolio.

Political pundits are expecting Premier David Eby to appoint new cabinet ministers who have fire in their bellies for the challenging jobs ahead, and the possibility of an early election call.

Provinces peppering the public with cash to deal with soaring prices compounds inflation rather than easing it, economists say.
