David Eby

Premier of British Columbia

David Eby is a determined problem-solver who has spent a lifetime taking on powerful interests.

As Premier of B.C., David is taking action on big challenges. He’s standing up to speculators to deliver more homes people can afford. He’s working to ease the pressure of everyday costs, from car insurance to childcare bills. And he’s strengthening health care by building hospitals and hiring more doctors.

Under David’s leadership, B.C. is an economic leader—with the lowest unemployment rate and some of the fastest growing wages in Canada.

Alongside John Horgan, David got the influence of big money out of politics, cracked down on money laundering, took on opioid manufacturers, and reduced car insurance rates.

David is an award-winning lawyer. He started his career on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, defending the homes of low-income people from big developers.

David remains grounded in the middle-class values he grew up with. He is a proud husband and father with three children, Ezra, Iva, and Gwen. He loves playing with his kids and hanging out with his wife Cailey, a family doctor in Vancouver.
