Take a breath.  Who cares if "Liberal" in BC means "Conservative".  Nationally, the Trudeau Liberals had an election platform which flanked the NDP on their left.

Harper is gone.  How long are you going to hold onto the term "Harperite"?  Is any Conservative candidate going to be deemed a "Harperite" forever?  Even the Democrats don't call Republicans "Reaganites" or "Bush-ites".  Is Trudeau a "Chretienite" or Horgan a "Harcourt-ite"?   See how ridiculous this sounds?

There will always be a legitimate place in BC politics for a right-of-centre party, regardless of its name.
