British Columbia politicians are making notable moves in federal politics, with former provincial figures seeking federal seats. Iain Black, a former B.C. Liberal, is now running for the federal Conservatives, while Sean Fraser, who previously announced his departure from politics, has reversed course and will run again for the Liberals. Meanwhile, internal party vetting processes are under scrutiny after the rejection of high-profile candidates in B.C. These shifts highlight the fluid nature of political allegiances and the strategic maneuvering within Canada's major parties ahead of upcoming elections.
Just more proof that career politicians will jump between parties and levels of government to cling to power instead of actually serving the people.

B.C. politicians are turning up in familiar but also unexpected federal places
Former B.C. Liberal Iain Black, who served in the provincial legislature between 2005 and 2011, is also running for the federal Conservatives in Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam, a seat which Ron McKinnon looks to defend for the federal Liberals.
Typical—career politicians hopping between levels of government to chase power instead of actually standing up for working people.
