VANCOUVER — British Columbia’s premier designate says he doesn’t know what the plan is to keep the Whitecaps in Vancouver.
Lorne Doerkson spoke to media Sunday, hours after his B.C. Conservatives were elected in about two-thirds of the province’s 93 ridings.
“I love the Whitecaps and there’s a great amount of support for them here,” said the party’s interim leader. “But I’ll be straight up with you — I don’t know the plan going forward.
“But I do want to have a conversation with the Whitecaps because — trust me when I say this — British Columbia loves the Whitecaps.”
