Richmond-Bridgeport MLA Teresa Wat announced that she will be joining
the new provincial political party led by interim leader Peter Milobar.
“British Columbians want a strong, credible alternative to the NDP that is focused on affordability, and competent government,” said Teresa Wat.
“After careful consideration, I have decided to join Peter and the growing team of sitting MLAs to help build this new party. I believe that this party can bring people together from across our province and replace the NDP as British Columbia’s government.”
Milobar welcomed Wat to the growing caucus and highlighted the momentum the new party is experiencing in a very short period of time.
“Teresa brings an extraordinary amount of experience to our team, both as a legislator and a former Cabinet Minister,” said Milobar. “Our team is growing because there is a clear appetite for a serious alternative to the NDP. British Columbians are tired of out of control spending and a government who is
responsible for the decline of so many sectors in our province. It’s time for change.”
