Good evening from the west coast
I’m a senior writer on the national desk based in Vancouver. The two frontrunners in the federal election are both holding rallies in western Canada tonight: Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre first in Edmonton, followed by Liberal Leader Mark Carney in the Metro Vancouver city of Richmond.
The Conservative party has its strongest support in Alberta, according to CBC’s Poll Tracker. By that same metric, the Liberals have a narrow lead in B.C.
Both provinces have billions at risk over the ongoing trade war with the United States on account of their vast resources — B.C. with its softwood lumber and agricultural industries, to name a few, and Alberta being the nation’s oil and gas capital.
