How ridings in and around Vancouver could determine government on election night

WNews Banner

It’s rare that late-night vote counting in British Columbia matters in a federal election — but should it come to pass on Monday, a number of ridings in and around Vancouver could be crucial.

There are 13 ridings in Vancouver, the North Shore, Burnaby, New Westminster and the Tri-Cities, and they could comprise the most politically unpredictable part of Western Canada this election.

Some ridings are highly unlikely to change hands, with long-time incumbents seeking re-election.

Liberal Hedy Fry is going for a 10th consecutive victory in Vancouver Centre, which she won two years ago by more than 10,000 votes.
