Leaders of the B.C. NDP and the B.C. Conservatives will be on Vancouver Island today for campaign events on the last day of advanced voting before British Columbia鈥檚 provincial election on Saturday.

David Eby has an announcement scheduled in Nanaimo this morning before fanning out across the island for campaign events in Ladysmith, Duncan and Victoria.

John Rustad will be in Nanaimo this evening for a campaign rally at a hotel.

B.C. Greens Leader Sonia Furstenau has a series of Zoom calls scheduled, but the party鈥檚 website indicates no in-person events Wednesday.

As the campaign enters its final days, British Columbians finally caught a glimpse of the B.C. Conservative platform, which promises a laundry list of affordability measures and to end the province鈥檚 multi-billion-dollar budget deficit in two terms.

Both the Greens and New Democrats were quick to criticize Rustad鈥檚 plans, and Eby earlier this week appealed to voters who鈥檝e never supported the party to vote for the NDP, saying there hasn鈥檛 been an election as significant 鈥渇or a generation.鈥�

Nearly 600,000 people have already cast ballots in the advanced voting period which ends today.
