Not enough data for Saanich Gulf Islands??? It’s a green seat, progressive vote is clearly green.

Actually, given how your voting tool does not show past electoral results for the Greens or the Bloc, it's not about progressive voting at all: it's about trying to pull out the NDP vote. As your tool states your info source as being "Source: Elections Canada," don't you worry about your selective use of their stats in your distinctly partisan effort to have NDP candidates elected?

Actually Taylor Bacharach, the Skeena NDP MP has really impressed me. He has been excellent in his job as transportation critic.

My Skeena Riding in BC is NDP with Conservatives threatening. I wanted to vote Liberal to show that Liberal support is growing. According to this strategy, I need to vote NDP so that Conservatives are unable to overtake the riding. I do have to give this more thought.

Yes, in some places a strategic NDP vote is how to keep Conservatives out

My riding has been an F#* Trudeau riding for a long time. As a Liberal Party member who supported J Trudeau, I refused to be intimidated. Nathan Cullen used to be our MP and during his long reign in this region, there is nothing to show for his representation.

We are under-developed, ignored from DFO regarding our rivers, and housing may have increased for LNG workers traveling from Alberta but then the housing market crashed because LNG builders were temporary.

We're a boom and bust forestry, pipeline region of many First Nations' territories. I strongly believe NDP got a free seat up here and have not represented us at all.

If you're a core Liberal and not a strategic voter, that's fine. But for those focused on stopping Poilievre and helping the NDP where they can, Skeena is a strategic NDP vote.
