Green leader Sonia Furstenau says her party has momentum heading into the provincial election on Saturday.

New Democrat Leader John Horgan is campaigning in ridings traditionally held by the B.C. Liberals in the waning days of the provincial election.

New Democrat Leader John Horgan is campaigning in ridings traditionally held by the B.C. Liberals in the waning days of the provincial election.

Horgan says people are seeing the NDP differently after the past 3 1/2 years in government because the party has shown it can balance the books and spur economic growth.

Horgan was campaigning in Langley and was later scheduled to visit Abbotsford, areas where the Liberals have done well in the past.

The NDP has also made a push in Green Leader Sonia Furstenau's Cowichan Valley riding, where federal NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh recently visited.

Green leader Sonia Furstenau says her party has momentum heading into the provincial election on Saturday.

She cites a recent record the Greens set for donations.

Furstenau says if that's a problem for the NDP, they should look at their own policies and recognize why they aren't appealing to people.

She made the comments in her home riding of Cowichan Valley, where Furstenau says she will spend much of the remaining days of the election campaign.

Liberal Leader Andrew Wilkinson stopped in Delta, where he repeated his promises to build a 10 lane bridge to replace the aging Massey Tunnel and hire 200 more police officers for the province.
