Voting for the BC Liberal Leadership race is on now. We'll know by Saturday evening who the new leader of the opposition will be.
One of the people vying for that job is political outsider Stan Sipos. We talk to him about why he's seeking the job.
And then we look at the federal Conservatives, where the caucus invoked the powers of the Reform Act to remove Erin O'Toole as leader. Will the freedum convoy take over the Conservative movement?
