Chak Au, Richmond Centre—Marpole (B.C.). The rookie MP defeated his Liberal opponent by less than five per cent in a riding that was redistributed and renamed in 2022. The previous riding, Richmond Centre, was a Liberal riding in 2021, but was won by Conservatives in the previous two elections. Au ran provincially for the B.C. NDP in 2017 but lost. He has been rumoured to be a possible floor crosser, but when asked about the possibility, Au said, “There’s no reason for me to change anything.”
