Love for the NDP? I thought BC was a Conservative stronghold, with the most C seats besides Alberta?

Maybe on the Provincial level, but I thought the Conservatives won a lot of seats in the last Federal. The first ever husband-wife elected were both Conservatives and the Independent Chuck Cadman was a former CA member, but ran as an Independent and won. I could be wrong, I know Adon is involved in the BC party and he's likely more knowledgeable about it.

Federally we're mostly conservative, except Vancouver is Liberal. 

Provincially, we used to be NDP for a long time, under Ujjal Dosanj (who now is the health minister of Canada).  But we're now Liberal under Gordon Campbell.  Our BC Liberals are similar to the federal Conservatives tho.  It's confusing.  lol

Urban centres are rarely conservative. Toronto was overwhelmingly Liberal and has been for a while. I think Conservatives only got 3 seats in Toronto proper. NDP got more than em here i think

Dossanj thats who it was, not Dhaliwal.

True, urban centres tend to drift more to the left of centre eg) Liberals and NDP.

Interesting fact: This is one of the first times Ontario has voted the same federally and provincially. Typically when we have a PC provincial party we vote Liberal. Look at the last time Ontario voted federal PC, when the NDP was in power. Harris (PC) took Ontario and then we voted Liberal. For some reason we voted in McGuinty and Martin. Strange how the pattern diverted.

East Hastings is crazy. It literally reminds me of a zombie movie whenever I drove through there. Lifeless bodies just lurking around, falling over in the street.
