The Highest Paying Companies Of 2017 All Have One Thing In Common

British Columbia has turned blue, electing a B.C. Conservative government with an overwhelming two-thirds majority.

Premier-designate Lorne Doerkson says he'll follow through on campaign promises to supercharge the province's economy, while outgoing Premier David Eby has announced his resignation as NDP leader.

Mounties in North Vancouver say 150 youth and their chaperones had to be rescued when the vessel they were on ran aground on a sandbar off Vancouver. 

RCMP say the vessel was in Burrard Inlet on Friday night and was carrying the group on graduation cruise.

The Canadian Press decision desk is projecting that British Columbia NDP Leader David Eby has been re-elected in his riding of Vancouver-Point Grey, but his party has lost the election to the B.C. Conservative Party. 

Eby has held the riding since 2013 after defeating then-premier Christy Clark of the B.C. Liberals, cementing his reputation as a political giant killer.
