01 / Introduction
## About Kyra Philbert
Elections BC lists Kyra Philbert as the BC Green Party candidate in Vancouver-Hastings. On the copy of the list stamped October 3, 2026 05:00:07 PM, the district's other accepted nominations are Christian Bosio of CentreBC, Kimball Cariou of the Communist Party of BC and Niki Sharma of the BC NDP. Nominations closed at 1 p.m. on October 3, 2026.
In the 2024 election Niki Sharma of the BC NDP won Vancouver-Hastings with 14,237 votes (64.15 percent). Jacob Burdge of the Conservative Party had 5,391 votes (24.29 percent), Bridget Burns of the BC Green Party 2,409 (10.85 percent) and Zsolt Kiss, an independent, 157 (0.71 percent). voche.me searched the whole 2024 statement of votes and found no candidate named Philbert in any district.
The party's candidate page says she is an artist, scholar and registered nurse with more than a decade of experience in health care, and that her work is grounded in health equity, social justice and the belief that urgent climate action is needed to protect collective well-being. It says she completed a Bachelor of Arts in Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice and a Master of Science in Nursing at the University of British Columbia in 2022, and that her graduate research, titled Nurse Angélique, examined connections between the early colonial history of Canadian nursing and more than 400 years of Black history in Canada. voche.me has not checked her nursing work, degrees or research with the employer, the university or a nursing regulator.
The page quotes her: “As a nurse, I see how climate change threatens the wellbeing of our communities. It must be recognized for the public health emergency that it is.” It adds that she believes climate policy must also consider equity, justice and the well-being of communities.

BC Green Party
No campaign website of her own is linked from the party's page, and the addresses kyraforhastings.ca, kyraforbc.ca and philbertforhastings.ca did not answer on 2026-10-03. A personal website under the same name exists. It does not mention this candidacy, so voche.me could not tie it to her and used nothing from it. The party's page links only to the party's own Facebook, Instagram and X accounts, and voche.me found no personal account tied to this candidacy, so no social media post is used. The web search tool had no searches left, so the name search used public search pages. DuckDuckGo showed a verification check, Brave returned HTTP 429, and Bing and Google returned nothing about her. A search of the party's own site for her surname returned only her candidate page and the candidates list. The first page of the party's media releases, dated September 25 to October 2, 2026, does not name her, and older releases were not read. Her nursing career, her UBC degrees and her graduate research come from the party's page only and were not checked with a nursing regulator, an employer or the university. The research itself was not opened. The page is undated and carries no events, and the party's events page listed none in Vancouver-Hastings on 2026-10-03. Her own words appear only in one quoted passage of two sentences, so every other commitment here is party text. The party plan page says nothing about her, and its platform may be updated, so the party items here need a new check after any update. The 2025 federal results and the 2020 provincial results were not searched for her name. VoteMate, campaign finances and endorsements were not reviewed. The questionnaire has not been sent.
Research status
## What voche.me has checked
Evidence reviewed on 2026-10-03: the Elections BC candidate list, the 2024 statement of votes, the party's candidate page for her, the party's candidates list, plan page, events page and first page of media releases, and a search of the party's site for her surname. The party's candidate page is the only source found that describes her, and it is the campaign's own account.
No campaign website of her own, no social media account tied to this candidacy and no news report about her were found. The party's events page listed no event in Vancouver-Hastings. The sections below hold what was found, and each blank one records that nothing was found on this date.
