While the NDP continues to lead in the polls, there’s still a chance that the Liberals could see another election victory if the NDP’s support falters.

Interesting - so Andrew Weaver is also in court.

Lawsuit over National Post articles[edit]
The British Columbia Supreme Court ruled that Dr. Weaver had been libelled in a series of National Post articles written by Terence Corcoran, Peter Foster and Kevin Libin that accused him of scientific misconduct in his studies of climate change, among other claims. In Weaver v. Corcoran[20] the court ruled that the charges were false and that ″the defamation in this case was serious. It offended Dr. Weaver’s character and the defendants refused to publish a retraction″. The court awarded Weaver $50,000 in damages, ordered that the offending articles be removed from the newspaper's archives and that a complete retraction be published. The National Post appealed the decision.[21][22] On April 21, 2017, The B.C Court of Appeal ordered a retrial in the defamation suit, citing an error in the judge's analysis of the articles pertaining to the suit.
