B.C. Premier John Horgan has called the Nanaimo byelection for January the 30th. The seat opened up when newly-elected Nanaimo mayor, Leonard Krog, resigned his provincial seat in November.

 

The byelection is one of the most important in the province’s history. If the Liberals win the seat from the NDP it will create a tie in the B.C. legislature, with speaker Darryl Plecas being required to break any tie.
