Anonymous website calls for BC United's Kevin Falcon to resign

Days after efforts to broker a deal with the BC Conservatives fell apart, BC United's Kevin Falcon was the target of an anonymous online campaign calling for him to resign as leader

Kevin Falcon's party, BC United, has dropped dramatically in opinion polls.

Days after efforts to broker a deal with the BC Conservatives fell apart, he was the target Monday of an anonymous online campaign calling for him to resign as leader

“Not the kind of situation that Kevin Falcon wants to see right now,” noted pollster Mario Canseco, the founder of Research Co., on Tuesday.

The group behind the website — which also posted online to a few dozens followers on X — declined an interview request, instead telling CTV in a statement, “We represent several members of the party who were both active in the BC Liberal days, and after the name change. All of us are members, some of us were staffers — but none of our group represents any elected official.”

The statement went on to say, “We are anonymous because we fear the kind of retribution that could come to us from Kevin and his team.”

Canseco said this might reflect the voices Falcon isn't listening to, adding "they've decided to take their case to the public."

In a statement, the communications director for BC United said the party doesn't respond to inquiries from anonymous social media accounts or websites.
