Elections BC lists Barry Wosk as the Centre BC candidate in Richmond-Steveston. On the list stamped October 3, 2026 03:00:07 PM, the other two candidates in the district are Bruce Kong of the BC NDP and Gordon Zhang of the Conservative Party. The same page says nominations could be submitted until 1 p.m. on October 3, 2026.
In the 2024 provincial election the district was won by Kelly Greene of the BC NDP with 10,332 votes (44.27 percent), according to Elections BC's statement of votes. Michelle Mollineaux of the Conservative Party received 9,848 (42.20 percent), Jackie Lee, listed as Unaffiliated, 2,354 (10.09 percent) and Elodie Vaudandaine of the BC Green Party 803 (3.44 percent). A search of that document for the surname Wosk found no candidate, and BC Ballot says no previous run is on record for him.
Centre BC's page about him says he is a lifelong Richmond resident based in Steveston, raised in Westwind, a graduate of Steveston High School and of the University of British Columbia with a Bachelor of Commerce degree. It says he has spent more than three decades building and operating a Richmond small business, that he has consulted for foreign organizations that want to grow in Canada, and that he lives in the riding with his wife and two teenage children. It names volunteer work with the Steveston High School Alumni Association, Big Brothers and RCM-SAR. These are the party's statements. voche.me has not checked them with the university, the school or the groups named.
The page says he most recently served as a Director of the Richmond Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber's board page lists a Barry Wosk as a director, elected at its annual general meeting on April 29, 2026, and marks him "On Leave of Absence". That page names a company for him, but no page voche.me read ties the candidate to that company, so the company is left out here.
The page gives his reasons for running as better governance that focuses on results, and says government should be financially responsible, socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable. It lists priorities of strengthening the economy, improving access to healthcare, building safer communities and addressing housing affordability. Centre BC's policy page says its Policy Committee is still writing its first policy areas, so the party has published no 2026 platform for these priorities to match.

voche.me found no interview, debate, news report or social media post by him as a 2026 candidate on 2026-10-03. His Centre BC page gives no photo credit, no website of his own and no social media account. The party's statements about him are unchecked: the Bachelor of Commerce from the University of British Columbia, his Steveston High School schooling, the more than three decades of running a Richmond small business, the consulting for foreign organizations and the volunteer work. The page does not name the business and does not spell out RCM-SAR. The Richmond Chamber of Commerce lists a Barry Wosk as a director, elected on April 29, 2026 and marked "On Leave of Absence", and names a company beside the name. No page voche.me read ties the candidate to that company, so the company is left out. Centre BC has published no 2026 platform: its policy page says its Policy Committee is still writing its first policy areas. The party's 149 public Bluesky posts from November 6, 2025 to October 2, 2026 do not mention him. His LinkedIn profile returned HTTP 999 and was not read. A Facebook account under his name appeared in search results, and no page voche.me read ties it to the candidate. Richmond News answered HTTP 403 and was not read. All-candidates meetings, campaign finances and endorsements were not found on this date. The questionnaire has not been sent.
Evidence reviewed on 2026-10-03: the Elections BC candidate list stamped October 3, 2026 03:00:07 PM and the 2024 statement of votes, the Centre BC page about him, the party's candidates, policy and news pages, the party's 149 public Bluesky posts from November 6, 2025 to October 2, 2026, the Richmond Chamber of Commerce board page and its May 1, 2026 release, the BC Ballot page about him, and the Elections BC key dates page. Web search was limited on the research date, so voche.me searched his name through Bing and the Western Standard site search, and read what they returned.
His priorities on this page come from the party's page about him. Each names a goal and none gives a step, a cost or a date. His work history and volunteer roles come from that page too, and voche.me has checked only the Chamber directorship, against the Chamber's own pages. He has no website of his own that voche.me could find. His LinkedIn page returned HTTP 999 and was not read. An empty section records that voche.me found nothing on this date.
The party's page says he has spent more than three decades building and operating a successful Richmond-based small business, with expertise in strategic planning, finance, sales, marketing, operations and manufacturing. It does not name the business, and voche.me has not checked the claim.
