My (incredibly poor) understanding of BC politics is the people calling themselves the Liberals (only in BC, not in natl Canadian politics) are in fact the Conservatives. So 1) that there is another party that is bothering to call itself Conservative, and 2) that they won, seems really bad.

Wait, maybe the "liberals" are gone and have become the conservatives?

Yeah, they rebranded for a bit as BC United and then closed and they largely coalesced around the Conservatives.

That's a terrible name for a football team. Should have stuck with United.
