Vernon-Lake Country-Monashee winner

Anderson says although his party did not form government, he vows to hold the federal government accountable.

“I’m looking forward to holding the liberals to account. I want my daughter-who’s  in her 20’s- to someday be able to afford a home, and under the current expenditures and debt load that that the Liberals have put Canada under, I don’t see that happening. We have to change our ways and and tighten our belts a little bit.”
