On May 30th, 2026, members of the Conservative Party of British Columbia will choose a new party leader.
Leadership contests are not only about party politics—they are also about ideas, priorities, and competing visions for the future of the province. In the weeks leading up to the vote, candidates are outlining their plans for British Columbia, including how they see the role of municipalities and regional districts across the province.
Local governments play a central role in delivering services, managing growth, and responding to community needs, so understanding how provincial political leaders view municipal issues is an important part of the broader conversation.
Today on Municipal Affairs, we’re joined by Sheldon Clare, MLA for Prince George-North Cariboo and a candidate in the Conservative Party of British Columbia leadership race.
Before entering provincial politics, Sheldon served for nearly three decades as a reserve officer in the Canadian Armed Forces, mentoring cadets and advocating for stronger local defense capabilities. He later became president and CEO of Canada’s National Firearms Association, representing responsible firearms owners and participating in international policy discussions. He was first elected as an MLA in 2024.
We’ll discuss his background, his vision for British Columbia, and how municipalities fit into that vision as the leadership race continues.
