Some incumbent candidates have taken a beating in British Columbia's municipal elections.
Voters on Saturday evicted the mayors of Vancouver and Surrey, the province's two biggest cities.
Here's a look at some of the results.
BIG TURNOUT IN VANCOUVER, FRY WINS
Pete Fry will be Vancouver's first Green mayor, after a resounding win over incumbent Ken Sim.
It's a big turnaround for businessman Sim, just four years after he swept to power when his ABC Party claimed a majority on council with seven out of 10 seats.
ABC has now been reduced to one seat, secured by Mike Klassen, while a mix of progressives from the Greens, the Coalition of Progressive Electors, and OneCity Vancouver take nine seats.
Turnout surged to more than 209,000, up 36 per cent from 2022.
The preliminary tally shows Fry won more than 98,000 votes, far ahead of Sim on 67,000, with Colleen Hardwick a distant third with about 18,000 votes.
Sim's former chief of staff, Kareem Allam, received about 10,500 votes.
MCCALLUM BACK IN SURREY AGAIN … AGAIN
Doug McCallum is back for his third separate stint in the Surrey mayor's office, which he first occupied 30 years ago.
Preliminary results show he received about 32 per cent of the vote to comfortably defeat incumbent Brenda Locke, who had 23 per cent.

McCallum was bested by Locke four years ago, and the pair have clashed repeatedly over Surrey's switch to a municipal police force from the RCMP, a move McCallum supported and Locke fiercely opposed.
McCallum, 82, first sat as mayor from 1996 to 2005, then again from 2018 to 2022.
VOTERS BACK AMALGAMATION OF VICTORIA, SAANICH
Voters in Victoria and Saanich have supported amalgamation by about a two-thirds majority in a non-binding ballot.
Mayor Marianne Alto was meanwhile re-elected in Victoria, with about 44 per cent of the vote, defeating Bruce McGuigan on about 34 per cent.
The ballot question of whether to combine Victoria and Saanich into a single municipality received 62 per cent support in Victoria and 68 per cent support in the District of Saanich, where Rishi Sharma is forecast to win the mayoralty.
KAMLOOPS MAYOR'S TUMULTUOUS TENURE ENDS
Incumbent mayor of Kamloops Reid Hamer-Jackson has been soundly defeated, finishing fourth with just 12 per cent of the vote after a turmoil-filled tenure.
The new mayor will be Mike O'Reilly, a former councillor, who won 44 per cent of the vote, according to preliminary results.
Hamer-Jackson was stripped by council of his position as the city's official spokesman in 2024, amid protracted conflict with council and city staff.
PRINCE GEORGE GETS NEW MAYOR AFTER TIGHT RACE
Simon Yu has been defeated in his bid to retain the mayoralty in Prince George, in a tight three-way contest.
Preliminary tallies show Yu was defeated by Garth Frizzell, a longtime councillor, who won 28 per cent of the vote, compared to 24 per cent for Yu and 23 per cent for Kyle Sampson.
RICHMOND GETS FIRST NEW MAYOR IN 25 YEARS
Richmond is getting its first new mayor in a quarter century, with Rob Howard gaining a narrow win over former Olympian Alexa Loo.
Howard, a former provincial legislator, received almost 20,000 votes to defeat Loo by fewer than 900.
Malcolm Brodie had held the mayoralty since 2001, but decided not to run again.
BRAD WEST GETS 90 PER CENT OF PORT COQUITLAM'S VOTES
One of B.C.'s most prominent and popular mayors has been re-elected with a massive share of the vote.

Port Coquitlam's Brad West received about 90 per cent of the vote to retain the office he first won in 2018.
He says he's "deeply humbled and grateful" in a message on social media.

It isn't far from Toronto. 🍂
Looking to chase some waterfalls this autumn? You may want to take a trip to this dreamy destination.
Located just outside of Toronto, it's a waterfall paradise with endless cascades and breathtaking hikes waiting to be explored.
Hamilton, about an hour from Toronto, is known as the "waterfall capital of the world." According to Tourism Hamilton, the area has over 150 cascades, from towering natural wonders to smaller hidden gems.
Many popular waterfalls are only minutes from downtown, so you don't have to go far to soak up some stunning views.
You can hike along scenic trails to hidden cascades, or discover waterfalls just steps from the parking lot.
Some of Hamilton's popular waterfalls include Felker's Falls, tucked away in a scenic conservation area, and Albion Falls, known as "one of the most picturesque waterfalls in the region."
For a fall hike with incredible views, head to Dundas Peak and Tew Falls, located in Spencer Gorge Conservation Area, where wooded trails lead to a dramatic lookout over a valley filled with autumn colours.
Along the way, you can admire the falls, a slender ribbon waterfall surrounded by a colourful forest.
Another must-see is Webster Falls, a picturesque cascade also located in Spencer Gorge Conservation Area. The waterfall is especially beautiful in autumn, when the surrounding trees turn shades of gold, orange and red.
Hamilton has plenty of other scenic trails and waterfalls to explore, too.
The Devil's Punchbowl features a dramatic waterfall plunging into a rocky gorge, while Tiffany Falls is a dreamy stop along a short forest trail.
For another peaceful woodland escape, Borer's Falls is a scenic cascade surrounded by greenery, and the Chedoke Radial Trail is a great option if you're looking for a hike with nature and views of the Niagara Escarpment.
Keep in mind that some conservation areas have seasonal access rules, parking restrictions or reservation requirements, particularly during peak fall colour season. It's worth checking the latest details before setting out.
For more inspiration, you can browse Tourism Hamilton's Waterfall Guide to discover even more cascades around the city.
If you're looking for some last-minute fall hikes or new places to explore, the "waterfall capital of the world" is just a road trip away.
It's a scenic hidden gem.
Fall is one of the most magical seasons in Ontario, with crisp leaves blanketing the ground, vibrant trees, and the smell of cinnamon wafting through the air.
It's the perfect time to get outdoors and soak up the scenery, and if you're looking for an especially enchanting spot to visit, keep this place in mind.
Belfountain Conservation Area is a stunning gem nestled in Caledon, about an hour from Toronto.
With colourful foliage, winding trails and beautiful river views, this park is a gorgeous place to soak up the magic of fall.
You'll find limestone cliffs, historic landmarks and wooden boardwalks that follow the river through the scenic landscape.
One highlight is the suspension bridge, which hangs beside a cascading waterfall. As you cross, you can admire the vibrant autumn leaves surrounding the gorge while listening to the water rushing below.
To reach the falls, take either the Gorge Trail or the Riverside Trail, a boardwalk path with scenic lookouts, from the parking lot. Keep in mind that the Gorge Trail is rated difficult, so be sure to wear sturdy footwear and come prepared for a more challenging hike.
There's more to discover around the conservation area, including a historic fountain, the Yellowstone Cave, and the Lucky the Fox statue.
After exploring the park, you can make your way into the nearby hamlet, where heritage buildings, little shops and quiet streets make for a cozy autumn day.
With roots dating back to the early 19th century, Belfountain has lots of small-town charm, and the surrounding fall foliage adds an extra layer of beauty. It's a quaint place to spend an afternoon taking in the scenery and browsing the local shops.
It just isn't fall without a cozy drink, and there are several cute cafes that will have you feeling like you're in an episode of Gilmore Girls. Higher Ground Café and The Belfountain Café are worth popping into if you're after a sweet treat and warm drink.
You can also enjoy a self-guided heritage walking tour, which takes you past old-world buildings and hidden gems that will whisk you away to another era.
