British Columbia’s election campaign is entering its second week with each party’s team of candidates in place and the leaders looking ahead to the upcoming televised debate.
The Oct. 9 debate will be one of the few occasions B.C. voters will see the leaders of the New Democrats, B.C. Conservatives and the Greens face each other during the campaign.
NDP Leader David Eby and B.C. Conservatives Leader John Rustad spent the first week of the campaign taking verbal personal swings at each other and criticizing their policies.
Eby says Rustad’s conspiracy-supporting anti-vaccine position could end up hurting people and the health care system, while Rustad says the NDP leader’s weak leadership and left wing viewpoints are damaging the province.
