Vancouver Rundown Friday May 31, 2024

The B.C. NDP would have an easy path to victory if an election were held today. An Angus Reid Institute poll finds the David Eby New Democrats at 41 per cent voter support. That’s well ahead of the 30 per cent for the BC Conservatives and 16 for BC United. The Greens have 11 per cent. The cost of living remains the number one issue, followed by health care and then housing affordability. Premier Eby’s voter approval rating is strong at 45 per cent…more than double that of party leaders John Rustad and Kevin Falcon who are tied at 22 per cent.
