Kerry-Lynne Findlay to Chair New Conservative Municipal Party in B.C.

Published

on

Kerry-Lynne Findlay, former South Surrey–White Rock MP and cabinet minister under Stephen Harper, has been appointed chair of the advisory board for the newly formed Conservative Electors Association, a registered municipal political party in British Columbia. She will mentor candidates and help shape the party’s strategy for the 2026 civic elections. Elaine Allan has been named vice-chair.

Conservative Electors Association Expands Across B.C.

The association has registered in multiple municipalities, including Vancouver, Surrey, Kelowna, Kamloops, and Prince George. Candidates will appear on local ballots simply as “Conservative” — a notable shift in a province where municipal politics have typically been less partisan.

The group’s principal officer is David Denhoff, a former deputy director of the BC Conservative Party. While the municipal party is not formally affiliated with its provincial counterpart, it signals an organized effort to extend the Conservative brand into local government.

Goals and Priorities

Supporters of the new municipal party say their focus will be on:

  • Affordability – addressing rising costs of living in B.C. communities.
  • Public safety – prioritizing crime reduction and community security.
  • Responsible management – emphasizing fiscal discipline in local government spending.

Why This Matters

The launch of the Conservative Electors Association marks a push to mobilize centre-right voters at the municipal level. With the 2026 civic elections approaching, it will test how much traction the Conservative brand can gain in B.C.’s diverse communities and how this could reshape the political landscape at the local level.
