Both David Eby and Lorne Doerkson spent the day campaigning in Surrey-Newton, underscoring the importance of Surrey's 10 ridings as key battlegrounds in the election. Ben O'Hara-Byrne and Keith Baldrey discuss why Surrey could help decide who forms government, and what the presence of candidates from ONE BC and Centre BC could mean in several closely watched ridings. They also examine the growing focus on ICBC after questions surrounding potential changes to no-fault insurance, and how the NDP is trying to turn the issue into a vulnerability for the BC Conservatives. The pair break down competing economic announcements from both parties and discuss whether a campaign that has so far lacked major moments or excitement may be waiting for the Oct. 14 leaders' debate to truly shift gears.
