- mkipper 1y agoGenerally speaking, provincial parties are either loosely affiliated or unaffiliated with federal parties which share a name. e.g. Alberta recently had an NDP government that skews much further right than the federal NDP. If someone says "BC is Liberal" when discussing multiple provinces, they're probably referring to the distribution of federal MPs from BC. And in three of the last four elections including the most recent, the Liberals have "won" BC federally.
