As an Epilogue to this thread, here is a page with all of the polls for the 3 parties over the election.

https://338canada.com/bc/polls.htm

The last poll listed was on October 6th from Léger and had the NDP 5 points ahead of the Conservatives.

We should get new poll numbers done after the debate by Monday.

Real polling, as in, Advance Voting starts in earnest tomorrow. Advance voting days are October 10, 11, 13, 15, and 16. Likely 8AM to 8PM in your local community or District Elections Office.

Election Day Oct 19 is only 10 days away!

elections.bc.ca is the place for all the info.

Overall I would say Rustad was on the defensive the most by far but got some of his main points out. Eby attacked the most, sometimes agreeing with Green leader Furstenau. Furstenau avoided attacking the others most of the time but got some digs in. She had the most effective delivery on policy.
Thanks for following this impromptu live tooting!

Rustad invokes the "Common Sense" words of the federal Conservative party platform as he closes, again going back to his "youth leaving BC" line he used most often all debate.

And there it ends. #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

"Rustad wants to throw it all away" #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Furstenau speaks strongly on polarization and how previous coalition government got work done and reduces polarization and "pointing fingers". Implores people to elect more greens for less polarization. #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

We heard it! BCCP leader says "you can't change the weather"!

Yes folks, there is a denier in the room. #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

We are now into the economy
Rustad: Get rid of regulations
Eby: Grow grow grow wages jobs etc
Furstenau: Support people

Also, Eby moves alot on his feet, camera moves around.

Eby: "What are you gonna cut? No plan"

Furstenau: brings up transit.

Eby: "how can we debate when you [BCCP] won't say your plan"

aside: comment from
folks in the room questions why straws is the biggest thing in the Conservative's mind. #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Eby: "I wouldn't describe our relationship with First Nations as parent and child but as a partnership" he scolds Rustad

Rustad has been weakest on this line.

"Ultimately we will have indigenous law over private land" Rustad "warns"

this is total nonsense.

On Indigenous Rights... after explaining their continued work with First Nations, Eby attacks "racist"

So far I would say the two on the right have been carrying most of the conversation. Rustad has spent the most time answering attacks.
Rustad:
"David Eby, we have seen people arrested distributing drugs in these facilities"
(on overdose prevention sites). #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Rustad "will not enforce Federal gun laws" says Eby.
Accuses Rustad of doing nothing when bags of money brought by gangs into BC Casinos under Liberal Gov.
#bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Eby addresses why the govenment pulled back from decriminalizing. "not simple solutions" #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

The moderator turns Rustad back to what she asked.

He focused on the government not being "a drug
dealer" #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Furstenau says there needs to be "regulated alternative"
to toxic drugs #bccp #bcpoli #bcgreens #BCElxn2024 #bcelection #bcndp

Furstenau ignores the attack line of questioning and goes to policy. Rustad earlier said to Eby he would "explain" his Nuremberg comments.

Eby says "we believe science works"
