British Columbia’s Official Opposition BC United party now says it will run some candidates in the Oct. 19 election, despite suspending its campaign last week to support the B.C. Conservative Party instead.

A letter to party members says despite last week’s suspension “we intend on running a select number of candidates” in the fall election.
