BC War Room

Day 18 of the BC War Room from Sitka Media. Former Premier Christy Clark joins Michael Gardiner and Azim Jiwani at the campaign's halfway mark to talk about the snap election call, her 2013 comeback, what Lorne Doerkson and David Eby need to do at next week's debate, the battle for women voters and Surrey, and how a new premier keeps a broad coalition and caucus together.

Day 8 of BC War Room. David Eby and Lorne Doerkson took competing economic plans to Surrey onthe same day, while Emily Lowan pitched a levy on fortunes over $50 million. Michael Gardiner and Azim Jiwani break down who each plan is built for, what the polls are saying six days before the debate and the gaffes of the campaign so far, from the timing of the election call to the ICBC letter to trial lawyers.

Day 16 of BC War Room. With the only leaders' debate of the campaign set for October 14, Michael Gardiner and Azim Jiwani go inside the week before the debate: the prep, the mock sessions and the spin. Why does a three-leader stage squeeze David Eby? What should Lorne Doerkson and Emily BC War Room — Day 16 copy package 2 Lowan do to win the night? And can a single line still change a campaign, as Gordon Wilson's did in 1991?

Day 15 of the BC snap election cycle. With 18 days until British Columbians vote on October 24, Michael Gardiner and Azim Jiwani break down the target ridings that will decide the election, from the North and the Tri-Cities to Richmond, Delta and the battleground of Surrey. Plus, the NDP's tax message, the healthcare debate and Quebec's stunning election night, where the CAQ was wiped off the map.

Nominations are closed and the ballot is set: 355 candidates across 93 ridings. On Day 14, Azim Jiwani and Michael Gardiner work through the map region by region, from Kelowna Centre and Langley-Willowbrook to Vancouver-Yaletown and Vancouver Island. They pick out the swing ridings that will decide who governs British Columbia on October 24 and ask whether OneBC or Centre BC can play spoiler anywhere.
