The newly-elected leader of the BC Conservative Party sat down for a one-on-one interview with Global News and is setting the stage for her priorities for her party.
On Saturday, Kerry-Lynne Findlay won a narrow victory, defeating four other challengers and besting rival Caroline Elliott on the fourth ballot.
Findlay spent most of the day in one-on-one meetings with her caucus and says she is hoping to run for a provincial seat and win a place in the legislature as soon as possible.

“I want to get in there as soon as I can. Of course, I’m a trial lawyer, so I like the debate, but quite apart from that I think as the leader it’s important that you’re there in all aspects,” Findlay told Global News.
“Really, it’s just in the floor of the legislature that I would not be able to go forward; everywhere else I’m leading. I want to do that quickly.”
