Boundary-Similkameen MLA Donegal Wilson leaves the BC Conservative caucus and says she will sit as an Independent. She announces the decision in a statement posted on social media, and outlets report it takes place under the leadership of Kerry-Lynne Findlay.
Wilson says her move is driven by a breakdown in communication within the party and concerns about “questionable hirings.” She describes the decision as a result of internal issues, rather than a change in policy direction. The Vancouver Sun reports she is the eighth MLA to leave the BC Conservatives under Findlay, placing the resignation within a broader pattern of departures noted by the outlet. Global News focuses on the announcement itself and the impact on caucus alignment, without detailing the specific reasons beyond her statement.
