The Communist Party of British Columbia is the provincial section of the Communist Party of Canada in British Columbia. From the 1945 election to the 1956 election, it was known as the Labor-Progressive Party, initially due to the Communist Party having been banned under the Defence of Canada Regulations. The party is led by Kimball Cariou, who was the long-time editor of People's Voice before he took the leadership position in December 2020.[1]
