The path for David Eby to become British Columbia premier, succeeding retiring Premier John Horgan, became clearer Thursday, but there’s still no official date for his takeover of the top job.
Eby, the New Democrat government’s former attorney general and minister responsible for housing, will officially be declared the leader of the B.C. New Democratic Party Friday, which paves the way for him to be sworn in as premier.
Horgan, 63, who is retiring due to health reasons, had said he would leave in December, but Cull said she can adjust the leadership election date as there is only one candidate. “Everyone was expecting the race to go to December, but when the campaign doesn’t follow the rules, this is what happens,” he said.The next provincial election is scheduled for October 2024.
Cull also concluded that Dogwood solicited “fraudulent memberships” by encouraging members of other political parties to join the New Democrats so they could vote in the race.Appadurai was to hold a news conference later Thursday but said Wednesday that her team used grassroots organizing to sign up thousands of new members, significantly more than Eby.
The review was started when complaints were made alleging Dogwood’s activities in the leadership race may constitute in-kind political contributions under the Elections Act, it said.
