- British_Columbia_general_election,_2001 abstract "The British Columbia general election of 2001 was the 37th provincial election in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. It was held to elect members of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. The election was called on April 18, 2001, and held on May 16, 2001. Voter turnout was 55.4 per cent of all eligible voters.The incumbent British Columbia New Democratic Party (BC NDP) had been rocked by two major scandals—the Fast Ferries Scandal and a bribery scandal involving Premier Glen Clark. With the NDP's ratings flatlining, Clark resigned in August 1999, and Deputy Premier Dan Miller took over as caretaker premier until the well-respected Ujjal Dosanjh was elected his permanent successor in February. Dosanjh was not, however, able to restore the party's public image, and the BC NDP was soundly defeated by the British Columbia Liberal Party (BC Liberals), led by former Vancouver mayor Gordon Campbell. The BC Liberals won over 57% of the popular vote, and all but two of the 79 seats in the provincial legislature—the most lopsided result in the province's electoral history.The BC NDP, on the other hand, suffered what was easily the worst defeat of a sitting government in provincial history. The NDP lost almost half of the share of the popular vote that it had won in the 1996 election, while its seat count fell from 39 seats to only two—those of Deputy Premier & Education Minister Joy MacPhail and Community Development Minister Jenny Kwan. It was the second-worst defeat of a sitting provincial government in Canada, eclipsed only by the New Brunswick election of 1987 and the Alberta election of 1935, in which the governing Tories and UFA were completely wiped off the map. Dosanjh lost his own seat, along with every member of the Cabinet except MacPhail and Kwan. Dosanjh resigned as party leader soon after the election; he had actually conceded defeat a week before voters went to the polls. Despite being the only other party in the Assembly, the BC NDP did not become the official opposition, because it lacked the four seats required for official party status.The British Columbia Unity Party had been created as a union of conservative parties. Initially, Reform BC, the Social Credit, the British Columbia Party, and the Family Coalition Party had joined under the \"BC Unity\" umbrella. By the time the election was called, however, only the Family Coalition Party and a large majority of Reform BC segments had remained in the BC Unity coalition. The other parties had withdrawn to continue independently. Ron Gamble, sometime leader and sometime president of the renewed Reform BC continued his opposition to conservative mergers, consistently proclaiming a \"Say No to Chris Delaney & BC Unity\" policy, until Unity's eventual collapse in 2004 after a failed second attempt at a merger with BC Conservatives.".
