The British Columbia Liberal Party (also referred to as the BC Liberals) is the governing political party in British Columbia, Canada.
Hart's most significant projects were the construction of Highway 97 to northern British Columbia (which is named in his honour) and the Bridge River Power Project, which was the first major hydroelectric development in British Columbia.
In rural British Columbia, the BC Liberals lost several marginal contests because of discomfort that the electorate had with some of Campbell's free-market policies, such as a promise to sell BC Rail.
Glen Clark (112 words)
